[PATCH 0/2] arm64/fp: Fix missing invalidation when working with in memory FP state

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

 



Mark Rutland identified a repeated pattern where we update the in memory
floating point state for tasks but do not invalidate the tracking of the
last CPU that the task's state was loaded on, meaning that we can
incorrectly fail to load the state from memory due to the checking in
fpsimd_thread_switch().  When we change the in-memory state we need to
also invalidate the last CPU information so that the state is corretly
identified as needing to be reloaded from memory.

This series adds the missing invalidations.
