powerpc: Add check_if_tm_restore_required() to giveup_all()
giveup_all() causes FPU/VMX/VSX facilities to be disabled in a threads MSR. If the thread performing the giveup was transactional, the kernel must record which facilities were in use before the giveup as the thread must have these facilities re-enabled on return to userspace. >From process.c: /* * This is called if we are on the way out to userspace and the * TIF_RESTORE_TM flag is set. It checks if we need to reload * FP and/or vector state and does so if necessary. * If userspace is inside a transaction (whether active or * suspended) and FP/VMX/VSX instructions have ever been enabled * inside that transaction, then we have to keep them enabled * and keep the FP/VMX/VSX state loaded while ever the transaction * continues. The reason is that if we didn't, and subsequently * got a FP/VMX/VSX unavailable interrupt inside a transaction, * we don't know whether it's the same transaction, and thus we * don't know which of the checkpointed state and the transactional * state to use. */ Calling check_if_tm_restore_required() will set TIF_RESTORE_TM and save the MSR if needed.
