[PATCH 03/18] KVM: arm64: Drop FP_FOREIGN_STATE from the hypervisor code

Marc Zyngier maz at kernel.org
Sat May 28 04:38:13 PDT 2022


The vcpu KVM_ARM64_FP_FOREIGN_FPSTATE flag tracks the thread's own
TIF_FOREIGN_FPSTATE so that we can evaluate just before running
the vcpu whether it the FP regs contain something that is owned
by the vcpu or not by updating the rest of the FP flags.

We do this in the hypervisor code in order to make sure we're
in a context where we are not interruptible. But we already
have a hook in the run loop to generate this flag. We may as
well update the FP flags directly and save the pointless flag
tracking.

Whilst we're at it, rename update_fp_enabled() to guest_owns_fp_regs()
to indicate what the leftover of this helper actually do.
