As for the general sentiment that PKRU is not suitable for management with XSAVE, I'm with you. I have a few concerns about moving away from XSAVE management, though. I'm not nixing the whole idea, but there are some things we need to resolve. First is that there _may_ be ABI concerns. The pkey selftest, for instance, manipulates the PKRU state on the signal stack and expects PKRU to be set in XCR0 so that it can do this. I wouldn't be shocked if some other pkey user depended on the XSAVE signal stack ABI this way. There are also the usual concerns that folks doing user-level context switching or other insanity get PKRU context switching for "free" when it's XSAVE-managed. Moving away from that could break them. I'll ask around. We could also pretty trivially put some surveillance in the sigreturn code to look for PKRU changes. Second, the XSAVE/FPU abomination is actually really handy for pkeys: 1. It establishes a *different* state upon signal delivery. Like sigaltstack, this means that the signal handler can recover from what would normally be a fatal condition like WRPKRU(0x3). I *think* this is OK today even if the signal entry XRSTOR did not touch PKRU since there's another write_pkru() in this path. 2. It allows the signal handler to inspect the interrupted context's PKRU value. (used in the selftest) 3. It allows the signal handler to *override* the PKRU value of the interrupted context. This is used in the selftest as an easy way to let a memory access instruction execute that initially causes a pkey-induced page fault as opposed to messing with RIP. None of this is insurmountable. For the selftest, I need to go looking at how important that functionality is and look for some alternatives.
