[PATCH 18/27] x86/fpu: Prepare copy_fpstate_to_sigframe() for TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD

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

 



From: Rik van Riel <riel@xxxxxxxxxxx>

The FPU registers need only to be saved if TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD is not set.
Otherwise this has been already done and can be skipped.
