* | arm64: fix possible invalid FPSIMD initialization state | Jiang Liu | 2014-01-09 |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 6db83cea1c975b9a102e17def7d2795814e1ae2b upstream. If context switching happens during executing fpsimd_flush_thread(), stale value in FPSIMD registers will be saved into current thread's fpsimd_state by fpsimd_thread_switch(). That may cause invalid initialization state for the new process, so disable preemption when executing fpsimd_flush_thread().

* | arm64: Floating point and SIMD | Catalin Marinas | 2012-09-17 |
This patch adds support for FP/ASIMD register bank saving and restoring during context switch and FP exception handling to generate SIGFPE. There are 32 128-bit registers and the context switching is currently done non-lazily. Benchmarks on real hardware are required before implementing lazy FP state saving/restoring.
