Subject: [PATCH 3/4] x86, fpu: irq_fpu_usable: always return true if use_eager_fpu()
Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2014 20:17:01 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140829181701.GD30659@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20140829181533.GA30659@redhat.com>
According to the comment and the changelog in 5187b28f "x86: Allow FPU
to be used at interrupt time even with eagerfpu", the __thread_has_fpu()
check was added to avoid the nested kernel_fpu_begin(). Now that we have
in_kernel_fpu we can remove this check and always return true.
__thread_has_fpu() can be false even if use_eager_fpu(), but this case
doesn't differ from !use_eager_fpu() case except we should not worry
about X86_CR0_TS, __kernel_fpu_begin/end will not touch this bit. And I
still think that "use_eager_fpu && (!__thread_has_fpu || !used_math)"
special cases should die, but this is off-topic right now.
