Subject: [patch 03/10] x86/fpu/signal: Move xstate clearing out of copy_fpregs_to_sigframe()
Date: Mon, 30 Aug 2021 18:27:25 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210830162545.486406880@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20210830154702.247681585@linutronix.de

When the direct saving of the FPU registers to the user space sigframe
fails, copy_fpregs_to_sigframe() attempts to clear the user buffer.

The most likely reason for such a fail is a page fault. As
copy_fpregs_to_sigframe() is invoked with pagefaults disabled the chance
that __clear_user() succeeds is minuscule.

Move the clearing out into the caller which replaces the
fault_in_pages_writeable() in that error handling path.

The return value confusion will be cleaned up separately.
