[PATCH 175/208] x86/fpu: Clean up fpu__clear() state handling
From: Ingo Molnar
Date: Tue May 05 2015 - 14:12:48 EST
We currently leak FPU state across execve() boundaries on eagerfpu systems:
$ /host/home/mingo/dump-xmm-regs-exec
# XMM state before execve():
XMM0 : 000000000000dede
XMM1 : 000000000000dedf
XMM2 : 000000000000dee0
XMM3 : 000000000000dee1
XMM4 : 000000000000dee2
XMM5 : 000000000000dee3
XMM6 : 000000000000dee4
XMM7 : 000000000000dee5
XMM8 : 000000000000dee6
XMM9 : 000000000000dee7
XMM10: 000000000000dee8
XMM11: 000000000000dee9
XMM12: 000000000000deea
XMM13: 000000000000deeb
XMM14: 000000000000deec
XMM15: 000000000000deed
# XMM state after execve(), in the new task context:
XMM0 : 0000000000000000
XMM1 : 2f2f2f2f2f2f2f2f
XMM2 : 0000000000000000
XMM3 : 0000000000000000
XMM4 : 00000000000000ff
XMM5 : 00000000ff000000
XMM6 : 000000000000dee4
XMM7 : 000000000000dee5
XMM8 : 0000000000000000
XMM9 : 0000000000000000
XMM10: 0000000000000000
XMM11: 0000000000000000
XMM12: 0000000000000000
XMM13: 000000000000deeb
XMM14: 000000000000deec
XMM15: 000000000000deed
The reason is that fpu__clear() does not clear out the state properly.
Fix it.
