[PATCH 9/9] x86, xsave: add kernel support for AMDs Lightweight Profiling (LWP)

From: Hans Rosenfeld
Date: Tue Nov 29 2011 - 07:43:46 EST


This patch extends the xsave structure to support the LWP state. The
xstate feature bit for LWP is added to XCNTXT_NONLAZY, thereby enabling
kernel support for saving/restoring LWP state. The LWP state is also
saved/restored on signal entry/return, just like all other xstates. LWP
state needs to be reset (disabled) when entering a signal handler.

v2:
When copying xstates for fork/clone, disable LWP in the new copy so that
new tasks start with LWP disabled as required by the LWP specification.
