Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Add a WARN on TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD in kvm_load_guest_fpu()
Date: Mon, 9 Dec 2019 12:05:17 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20191209200517.13382-1-sean.j.christopherson@intel.com> (raw)
WARN once in kvm_load_guest_fpu() if TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD is observed, as
that would mean that KVM is corrupting userspace's FPU by saving
unknown register state into arch.user_fpu. Add a comment to explain
why KVM WARNs on TIF_NEED_FPU_LOAD instead of implementing logic
similar to fpu__copy().
