However, the FPU and vector traps rely on CR0 indicating whether we are coming from userspace or kernel to decide what to do. So we need to restore that value after the C call Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt --- diff --git a/arch/powerpc/include/asm/ppc_asm.h b/arch/powerpc/include/asm/ppc_asm.h index 368f72f79808..50f73aa2ba21 100644 --- a/arch/powerpc/include/asm/ppc_asm.h +++ b/arch/powerpc/include/asm/ppc_asm.h @@ -60,6 +60,8 @@ BEGIN_FW_FTR_SECTION; \ cmpd cr1,r11,r10; \ beq+ cr1,33f; \ bl .accumulate_stolen_time; \ + ld r12,_MSR(r1); \ + andi. r10,r12,MSR_PR; /* Restore cr0 (coming from user) */ \ 33: \ END_FW_FTR_SECTION_IFSET(FW_FEATURE_SPLPAR)
