Remove open-coded exception table entries in arch/x86/include/asm/xsave.h, and replace them with _ASM_EXTABLE() macros; this will allow us to change the format and type of the exception table entries.

As xsave also supports other than fpu features, it should be initialized independently of the fpu. This patch moves this out of fpu initialization. There is also a lot of cross referencing between fpu and xsave code. This patch reduces this by making xsave_cntxt_init() and init_thread_xstate() static functions. The patch moves the cpu_has_xsave check at the beginning of xsave_init(). All other checks may removed then.

There are no dependencies to asm/i387.h. Instead, if including only xsave.h the following error occurs: .../arch/x86/include/asm/i387.h:110: error: ‘XSTATE_FP’ undeclared (first use in this function) .../arch/x86/include/asm/i387.h:110: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once .../arch/x86/include/asm/i387.h:110: error: for each function it appears in.)

xsaveopt is a more optimized form of xsave specifically designed for the context switch usage. xsaveopt doesn't save the state that's not modified from the prior xrstor. And if a specific feature state gets modified to the init state, then xsaveopt just updates the header bit in the xsave memory layout without updating the corresponding memory layout.

With xsaveopt, if a processor implementation discern that a processor state component is in its initialized state it may modify the corresponding bit in the xsave_hdr.xstate_bv as '0', with out modifying the corresponding memory layout. Hence wHile presenting the xstate information to the user, we always ensure that the memory layout of a feature will be in the init state if the corresponding header bit is zero. This ensures the consistency and avoids the condition of the user seeing some some stale state in the memory layout during signal handling, debugging etc. Signed-off-by: NSuresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@intel.com> LKML-Reference: <20100719230205.351459480@sbs-t61.sc.intel.com> Signed-off-by: NH.

fxsave/xsave doesn't touch all the bytes in the memory layout used by these instructions. Specifically SW reserved (bytes 464..511) fields in the fxsave frame and the reserved fields in the xsave header. To present a clean context for the signal handling, just clear these fields instead of clearing the complete fxsave/xsave memory layout, when we dump these registers directly to the user signal frame. Also avoid the call to second xrstor (which inits the state not passed in the signal frame) in restore_user_xstate() if all the state has already been restored by the first xrstor. These changes improve the performance of signal handling(by ~3-5% as measured by the lat_sig).

Currently all fpu state access is through tsk->thread.xstate. Since we wish to generalize fpu access to non-task contexts, wrap the state in a new 'struct fpu' and convert existing access to use an fpu API. Signal frame handlers are not converted to the API since they will remain task context only things.

Add the xstate regset support which helps extend the kernel ptrace and the core-dump interfaces to support AVX state etc. This regset interface is designed to support all the future state that gets supported using xsave/xrstor infrastructure. Looking at the memory layout saved by "xsave", one can't say which state is represented in the memory layout. This is because if a particular state is in init state, in the xsave hdr it can be represented by bit '0'. And hence we can't really say by the xsave header wether a state is in init state or the state is not saved in the memory layout. And hence the xsave memory layout available through this regset interface uses SW usable bytes [464..511] to convey what state is represented in the memory layout. First 8 bytes of the sw_usable_bytes[464..467] will be set to OS enabled xstate mask(which is same as the 64bit mask returned by the xgetbv's xCR0). The note NT_X86_XSTATE represents the extended state information in the core file, using the above mentioned memory layout.

On cpu's supporting xsave/xrstor, fpstate pointer in the sigcontext, will include the extended state information along with fpstate information. Presence of extended state information is indicated by the presence of FP_XSTATE_MAGIC1 at fpstate.sw_reserved.magic1 and FP_XSTATE_MAGIC2 at fpstate + (fpstate.sw_reserved.extended_size - FP_XSTATE_MAGIC2_SIZE). Extended feature bit mask that is saved in the memory layout is represented by the fpstate.sw_reserved.xstate_bv For RT signal frames, UC_FP_XSTATE in the uc_flags also indicate the presence of extended state information in the sigcontext's fpstate pointer.

Uses xsave/xrstor (instead of traditional fxsave/fxrstor) in context switch when available. Introduces TS_XSAVE flag, which determine the need to use xsave/xrstor instructions during context switch instead of the legacy fxsave/fxrstor instructions. Thread-synchronous status word is already in L1 cache during this code patch and thus minimizes the performance penality compared to (cpu_has_xsave) checks.
