[PATCH v3 3/8] crypto: x86 - Stop using cpu_has_xfeatures()

Eric Biggers ebiggers at kernel.org
Wed Aug 12 19:15:01 PDT 2026


Checking both boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_AVX*) and cpu_has_xfeatures() has
never really been needed in practice, and it's never been universally
done (e.g., lib/raid/ omits cpu_has_xfeatures()).  Nevertheless, both
x86 and UML now explicitly clear the AVX and AVX-512 flags if their
xfeatures are missing, which should remove any remaining doubts.

Thus, remove all the calls to cpu_has_xfeatures(), as well as the
related checks of boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_OSXSAVE).

In a few cases there was no corresponding boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_AVX*)
check, so add the missing ones.
