With recent cleanups and fixes the fpu__reset() and fpu__clear() functions have become almost identical in functionality: the only difference is that fpu__reset() assumed that the fpstate was already active in the eagerfpu case, while fpu__clear() activated it if it was inactive. This distinction almost never matters, the only case where such fpstate activation happens if if the init thread (PID 1) gets exec()-ed for the first time. So keep fpu__clear() and change all fpu__reset() uses to fpu__clear() to simpify the logic. ( In a later patch we'll further simplify fpu__clear() by making sure that all contexts it is called on are already active. ) 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.

fpu_restore_checking() is a helper function of restore_fpu_checking(), but this is not apparent from the naming.

drop_fpu() and fpu_reset_state() are similar in functionality and in scope, yet this is not apparent from their names. drop_fpu() deactivates FPU contents (both the fpregs and the fpstate), but leaves register contents intact in the eager-FPU case, mostly as an optimization. It disables fpregs in the lazy FPU case. The drop_fpu() method can be used to destroy FPU state in an optimized way, when we know that a new state will be loaded before user-space might see any remains of the old FPU state: - such as in sys_exit()'s exit_thread() where we know this task won't execute any user-space instructions anymore and the next context switch cleans up the FPU. The old FPU state might still be around in the eagerfpu case but won't be saved. - in __restore_xstate_sig(), where we use drop_fpu() before copying a new state into the fpstate and activating that one. No user-pace instructions can execute between those steps. - in sys_execve()'s fpu__clear(): there we use drop_fpu() in the !eagerfpu case, where it's equivalent to a full reinit. fpu_reset_state() is a stronger version of drop_fpu(): both in the eagerfpu and the lazy-FPU case it guarantees that fpregs are reinitialized to init state. This method is used in cases where we need a full reset: - handle_signal() uses fpu_reset_state() to reset the FPU state to init before executing a user-space signal handler. While we have already saved the original FPU state at this point, and always restore the original state, the signal handling code still has to do this reinit, because signals may interrupt any user-space instruction, and the FPU might be in various intermediate states (such as an unbalanced x87 stack) that is not immediately usable for general C signal handler code. - __restore_xstate_sig() uses fpu_reset_state() when the signal frame has no FP context. Since the signal handler may have modified the FPU state, it gets reset back to init state. - in another branch __restore_xstate_sig() uses fpu_reset_state() to handle a restoration error: when restore_user_xstate() fails to restore FPU state and we might have inconsistent FPU data, fpu_reset_state() is used to reset it back to a known good state. - __kernel_fpu_end() uses fpu_reset_state() in an error branch. This is in a 'must not trigger' error branch, so on bug-free kernels this never triggers. - fpu__restore() uses fpu_reset_state() in an error path as well: if the fpstate was set up with invalid FPU state (via ptrace or via a signal handler), then it's reset back to init state. - likewise, the scheduler's switch_fpu_finish() uses it in a restoration error path too. Move both drop_fpu() and fpu_reset_state() to the fpu__*() namespace and harmonize their naming with their function: fpu__drop() fpu__reset() This clearly shows that both methods operate on the full state of the FPU, just like fpu__restore(). Also add comments to explain what each function does.

Standardize the naming of save_xstate_sig() by renaming it to copy_fpstate_to_sigframe(): this tells us at a glance that the function copies an FPU fpstate to a signal frame. This naming also follows the naming of copy_fpregs_to_fpstate(). Don't put 'xstate' into the name: since this is a generic name, it's expected that the function is able to handle xstate frames as well, beyond legacy frames. xstate used to be the odd case in the x86 FPU code - now it's the common case.

So the sanitize_i387_state() function has the following purpose: on CPUs that support optimized xstate saving instructions, an FPU fpstate might end up having partially uninitialized data. This function initializes that data. Note that the function name is a misnomer and confusing on two levels, not only is it not i387 specific at all, but it is the exact opposite: it only matters on xstate CPUs. So rename sanitize_i387_state() and __sanitize_i387_state() to fpstate_sanitize_xstate() and __fpstate_sanitize_xstate(), to clearly express the purpose and usage of the function. We'll further clean up this function in the next patch.

So 6 years ago we made the FPU fpstate dynamically allocated: aa283f49 ("x86, fpu: lazy allocation of FPU area - v5") 61c4628b ("x86, fpu: split FPU state from task struct - v5") In hindsight this was a mistake: - it complicated context allocation failure handling, such as: /* kthread execs. TODO: cleanup this horror. */ if (WARN_ON(fpstate_alloc_init(fpu))) force_sig(SIGKILL, tsk); - it caused us to enable irqs in fpu__restore(): local_irq_enable(); /* * does a slab alloc which can sleep */ if (fpstate_alloc_init(fpu)) { /* * ran out of memory! */ do_group_exit(SIGKILL); return; } local_irq_disable(); - it (slightly) slowed down task creation/destruction by adding slab allocation/free pattens. - it made access to context contents (slightly) slower by adding one more pointer dereference. The motivation for the dynamic allocation was two-fold: - reduce memory consumption by non-FPU tasks - allocate and handle only the necessary amount of context for various XSAVE processors that have varying hardware frame sizes. These days, with glibc using SSE memcpy by default and GCC optimizing for SSE/AVX by default, the scope of FPU using apps on an x86 system is much larger than it was 6 years ago. For example on a freshly installed Fedora 21 desktop system, with a recent kernel, all non-kthread tasks have used the FPU shortly after bootup. Also, even modern embedded x86 CPUs try to support the latest vector instruction set - so they'll too often use the larger xstate frame sizes. So remove the dynamic allocation complication by embedding the FPU fpstate in task_struct again. This should make the FPU a lot more accessible to all sorts of atomic contexts. We could still optimize for the xstate frame size in the future, by moving the state structure to the last element of task_struct, and allocating only a part of that. This change is kept minimal by still keeping the ctx_alloc()/free() routines (that now do nothing substantial) - we'll remove them in the following patches.

x86/fpu: Optimize copy_fpregs_to_fpstate() by removing the FNCLEX synchronization with FP exceptions So we have the following ancient code in copy_fpregs_to_fpstate(): if (unlikely(fpu->state->fxsave.swd & X87_FSW_ES)) { asm volatile("fnclex"); goto drop_fpregs; } which clears pending FPU exceptions and then drops registers, which causes the next FP instruction of the saved context to re-load the saved FPU state, with all pending exceptions marked properly, and will re-start the exception handling mechanism in the hardware. Since FPU exceptions are always issued on instruction boundaries, in particular on the next FP instruction following the exception generating instruction, there's no fear of getting an FP exception asynchronously. They were truly asynchronous back in the IRQ13 days, when the FPU was a weird and expensive co-processor that did its own processing, and we had to synchronize with them, but that code is not working anymore: we don't have IRQ13 mapped in the IDT anymore. With the introduction of optimized XSAVE support there's a new complication: if the xstate features bit indicates that a particular state component is unused (in 'init state'), then the hardware does not guarantee that the XSAVE (et al) instruction keeps the underlying FPU state image in memory valid and current. In practice this means that the hardware won't write it, and the exceptions flag in the state might be an older version, with it still being set. This meant that we had to check the xfeatures flag as well, adding another memory load and branch to a critical hot path of the scheduler. So optimize all this by removing both the old quirk and the new check, and straight-line optimizing the most common cases with likely() hints. Quite a bit of code gets removed this way: arch/x86/kernel/process_64.o: text data bss dec filename 5484 8 0 5492 process_64.o.before 5416 8 0 5424 process_64.o.after Now there's also a chance that some weird behavior or erratum was masked by our IRQ13 handling quirk (or that I misunderstood the nature of the quirk), and that this change triggers some badness. There's no real good way to protect against that possibility other than keeping this change well isolated, well commented and well bisectable. If you bisect a weird (or not so weird) breakage to this commit then please let us know!

So fpu_save_init() is a historic name that got its name when the only way the FPU state was FNSAVE, which cleared (well, destroyed) the FPU state after saving it. Nowadays the name is misleading, because ever since the introduction of FXSAVE (and more modern FPU saving instructions) the 'we need to reload the FPU state' part is only true if there's a pending FPU exception [*], which is almost never the case. So rename it to copy_fpregs_to_fpstate() to make it clear what's happening. Also add a few comments about why we cannot keep registers in certain cases. Also clean up the control flow a bit, to make it more apparent when we are dropping/keeping FP registers, and to optimize the common case (of keeping fpregs) some more. [*] Probably not true anymore, modern instructions always leave the FPU state intact, even if exceptions are pending: because pending FP exceptions are posted on the next FP instruction, not asynchronously. They were truly asynchronous back in the IRQ13 case, and we had to synchronize with them, but that code is not working anymore: we don't have IRQ13 mapped in the IDT anymore. But a cleanup patch is obviously not the place to change subtle behavior.

There are a number of FPU internal function prototypes and an inline function in fpu/api.h, mostly placed so historically as the code grew over the years. Move them over into fpu/internal.h where they belong. (Add sched.h include to stackprotector.h which incorrectly relied on getting it from fpu/api.h.) fpu/api.h is now a pure file that only contains FPU APIs intended for driver use.

Make init_xstate_buf allocated statically at build time. This structure's maximum size is around 1KB - and it's allocated even on most modern embedded x86 CPUs which strive for FPU instruction set parity with desktop and server CPUs, so it's not like we can save much on smaller systems. This removes the last bootmem allocation from the FPU init path, allowing it to be called earlier in the boot sequence.

So the current code uses fpu->has_cpu to determine whether a given user FPU context is actively loaded into the FPU's registers [*] and that those registers represent the task's current FPU state. But this term is not unambiguous: especially the distinction between fpu->has_fpu, PF_USED_MATH and fpu_fpregs_owner_ctx is not clear. Increase clarity by unambigously signalling that it's about hardware registers being active right now, by renaming it to fpu->fpregs_active. ( In later patches we'll use more of the 'fpregs' naming, which will make it easier to grep for as well. ) [*] There's the kernel_fpu_begin()/end() primitive that also activates FPU hw registers as well and uses them, without touching the fpu->fpregs_active flag.

'xsave.header::xstate_bv' is a misnomer - what does 'bv' stand for? It probably comes from the 'XGETBV' instruction name, but I could not find in the Intel documentation where that abbreviation comes from. It could mean 'bit vector' - or something else? But how about - instead of guessing about a weird name - we named the field in an obvious and descriptive way that tells us exactly what it does? So rename it to 'xfeatures', which is a bitmask of the xfeatures that are fpstate_active in that context structure. Eyesore like: fpu->state->xsave.xsave_hdr.xstate_bv |= XSTATE_FP; is now much more readable: fpu->state->xsave.header.xfeatures |= XSTATE_FP; Which form is not just infinitely more readable, but is also shorter as well.

Code like: fpu->state->xsave.xsave_hdr.xstate_bv |= XSTATE_FP; is an eyesore, because not only is the words 'xsave' and 'state' are repeated twice times (!), but also because of the 'hdr' and 'bv' abbreviations that are pretty meaningless at a first glance.
