[ 119/143] x86, fpu, amd: Clear exceptions in AMD FXSAVE workaround

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Sun May 11 2014 - 21:45:33 EST


2.6.32-longterm review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Before we do an EMMS in the AMD FXSAVE information leak workaround we
need to clear any pending exceptions, otherwise we trap with a
floating-point exception inside this code.

(cherry picked from commit 26bef1318adc1b3a530ecc807ef99346db2aa8b0)
[wt: in 2.6.32, patch applies to arch/x86/include/asm/i387.h. There's
no static_cpu_has() so we use boot_cpu_has() like other kernels do
with gcc3.
