[ 14/16] crypto: xor - Check for osxsave as well as avx in crypto/xor

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

 



3.11-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: John Haxby <john.haxby@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit edb6f29464afc65fc73767540b854abf63ae7144 upstream.

This affects xen pv guests with sufficiently old versions of xen and
sufficiently new hardware.  On such a system, a guest with a btrfs
root won't even boot.
