Subject: [PATCH 4.4 10/24] x86/fpu: Hard-disable lazy FPU mode

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org>

commit ca6938a1cd8a1c5e861a99b67f84ac166fc2b9e7 upstream.

Since commit:

  58122bf1d856 ("x86/fpu: Default eagerfpu=on on all CPUs")

... in Linux 4.6, eager FPU mode has been the default on all x86
systems, and no one has reported any regressions.

This patch removes the ability to enable lazy mode: use_eager_fpu()
becomes "return true" and all of the FPU mode selection machinery is
removed.

- * FPU context switching strategies:
- *
- * Against popular belief, we don't do lazy FPU saves, due to the
- * task migration complications it brings on SMP - we only do
- * lazy FPU restores.
- *
- * 'lazy' is the traditional strategy, which is based on setting
- * CR0::TS to 1 during context-switch (instead of doing a full
- * restore of the FPU state), which causes the first FPU instruction
- * after the context switch (whenever it is executed) to fault - at
- * which point we lazily restore the FPU state into FPU registers.
- *
- * Tasks are of course under no obligation to execute FPU instructions,
- * so it can easily happen that another context-switch occurs without
- * a single FPU instruction being executed. If we eventually switch
- * back to the original task (that still owns the FPU) then we have
- * not only saved the restores along the way, but we also have the
- * FPU ready to be used for the original task.
- *
- * 'lazy' is deprecated because it's almost never a performance win
- * and it's much more complicated than 'eager'.
- *
- * 'eager' switching is by default on all CPUs, there we switch the FPU
- * state during every context switch, regardless of whether the task
- * has used FPU instructions in that time slice or not. This is done
- * because modern FPU context saving instructions are able to optimize
- * state saving and restoration in hardware: they can detect both
- * unused and untouched FPU state and optimize accordingly.
- *
- * [ Note that even in 'lazy' mode we might optimize context switches
- *   to use 'eager' restores, if we detect that a task is using the FPU
- *   frequently. See the fpu->counter logic in fpu/internal.h for that. ]
