[PATCH 4.9 03/92] powerpc/64: Convert fast_exception_return to use RFI_TO_USER/KERNEL

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

 



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

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

From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxxxx>

commit a08f828cf47e6c605af21d2cdec68f84e799c318 upstream.

Similar to the syscall return path, in fast_exception_return we may be
returning to user or kernel context. We already have a test for that,
because we conditionally restore r13. So use that existing test and
branch, and bifurcate the return based on that.
