From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Fri, 6 Feb 2015 20:01:58 +0000 (-0500) Subject: x86/fpu: Don't reset thread.fpu_counter X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a9241ea5fd709fc935dade130f4e3b2612bbe9e3;p=linux-beck.git x86/fpu: Don't reset thread.fpu_counter The "else" branch clears ->fpu_counter as a remnant of the lazy FPU usage counting: e07e23e1fd30 ("[PATCH] non lazy "sleazy" fpu implementation") However, switch_fpu_prepare() does this now so that else branch is superfluous. If we do use_eager_fpu(), then this has no effect. Otherwise, if we actually wanted to prevent fpu preload after the context switch we would need to reset it unconditionally, even if __thread_has_fpu().
