x86/fpu: Don't save fxregs for ia32 frames in copy_fpstate_to_sigframe()
In commit
72a671ced66db ("x86, fpu: Unify signal handling code paths for x86 and x86_64 kernels")
the 32bit and 64bit path of the signal delivery code were merged.
The 32bit version:
int save_i387_xstate_ia32(void __user *buf)
…
if (cpu_has_xsave)
return save_i387_xsave(fp);
if (cpu_has_fxsr)
return save_i387_fxsave(fp);
The 64bit version:
int save_i387_xstate(void __user *buf)
…
if (user_has_fpu()) {
if (use_xsave())
err = xsave_user(buf);
else
err = fxsave_user(buf);
if (unlikely(err)) {
__clear_user(buf, xstate_size);
return err;
The merge:
int save_xstate_sig(void __user *buf, void __user *buf_fx, int size)
…
if (user_has_fpu()) {
/* Save the live register state to the user directly. */
if (save_user_xstate(buf_fx))
return -1;
/* Update the thread's fxstate to save the fsave header. */
if (ia32_fxstate)
fpu_fxsave(&tsk->thread.fpu);
I don't think that we needed to save the FPU registers to ->thread.fpu
because the registers were stored in buf_fx. Today the state will be
restored from buf_fx after the signal was handled (I assume that this
was also the case with lazy-FPU).
Since commit
66463db4fc560 ("x86, fpu: shift drop_init_fpu() from save_xstate_sig() to handle_signal()")
it is ensured that the signal handler starts with clear/fresh set of FPU
registers which means that the previous store is futile.
Remove the copy_fxregs_to_kernel() call because task's FPU state is
cleared later in handle_signal() via fpu__clear().
