There are two concepts that have some confusing naming: 1. Extended State Component numbers (currently called XFEATURE_BIT_*) 2. Extended State Component masks (currently called XSTATE_*) The numbers are (currently) from 0-9. State component 3 is the bounds registers for MPX, for instance. But when we want to enable "state component 3", we go set a bit in XCR0. The bit we set is 1<<3. We can check to see if a state component feature is enabled by looking at its bit. The current 'xfeature_bit's are at best xfeature bit _numbers_. Calling them bits is at best inconsistent with ending the enum list with 'XFEATURES_NR_MAX'. This patch renames the enum to be 'xfeature'. These also happen to be what the Intel documentation calls a "state component". We also want to differentiate these from the "XSTATE_*" macros. The "XSTATE_*" macros are a mask, and we rename them to match. These macros are reasonably widely used so this patch is a wee bit big, but this really is just a rename. The only non-mechanical part of this is the s/XSTATE_EXTEND_MASK/XFEATURE_MASK_EXTEND/ We need a better name for it, but that's another patch.

Remaining users of fpu__activate_fpstate() are all places that want to modify FPU registers, rename the function to fpu__activate_fpstate_write() according to this usage.

Currently fpu__activate_fpstate() is used for two distinct purposes: - read access by ptrace and core dumping, where in the core dumping case the current task's FPU state may be examined as well. - write access by ptrace, which modifies FPU registers and expects the modified registers to be reloaded on the next context switch. Split out the reading side into fpu__activate_fpstate_read(). ( Note that this is just a pure duplication of fpu__activate_fpstate() for the time being, we'll optimize the new function in the next patch. ) Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Cc: Bobby Powers <bobbypowers@gmail.com> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com> Cc: H.

Bobby Powers reported the following FPU warning during ELF coredumping: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 27452 at arch/x86/kernel/fpu/core.c:324 fpu__activate_stopped+0x8a/0xa0() This warning unearthed an invalid assumption about fpu__activate_stopped() that I added in: 67e97fc2 ("x86/fpu: Rename init_fpu() to fpu__unlazy_stopped() and add debugging check") the old init_fpu() function had an (intentional but obscure) side effect: when FPU registers are accessed for the current task, for reading, then it synchronized live in-register FPU state with the fpstate by saving it. So fix this bug by saving the FPU if we are the current task. We'll still warn in fpu__save() if this is called for not yet stopped child tasks, so the debugging check is still preserved. Also rename the function to fpu__activate_fpstate(), because it's not exclusively used for stopped tasks, but for the current task as well. ( Note that this bug calls for a cleaner separation of access-for-read and access-for-modification FPU methods, but we'll do that in separate patches. ) Reported-by: NBobby Powers <bobbypowers@gmail.com> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> Cc: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com> Cc: H.

So much of fpu/core.c is the regset code, but it just obscures the generic FPU state machine logic. Factor out the regset code into fpu/regset.c, where it can be read in isolation. This affects one API: fpu__activate_stopped() has to be made available from the core to fpu/regset.c. No change in functionality.
