[RFC PATCH 09/10] x86/fpu: copy non-resident FPU state at fork time

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Rik van Riel <riel@xxxxxxxxxxx>

If the FPU state is not loaded in registers at fork time, memcpy the
fpstate from the parent task to the child task.
