Subject: [PATCH 1/2] x86/fpu: Extend kernel_fpu_begin_mask() to initialize AMX state
Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2024 14:25:07 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240430212508.105117-2-chang.seok.bae@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240430212508.105117-1-chang.seok.bae@intel.com>

The In-Field Scan [1] test does not start its operation when the CPU is
unprepared. If the AMX state is uninitialized, the scan test will
immediately terminate. Therefore, a proper initialization of the AMX
state is necessary to run the test.

Although fpu_idle_fpregs() initializes the state, its usage should be
limited to specialized cases, primarily before entering the sleep state.
The restore_fpregs_from_fpstate() function offers a suitable mechanism
for initializing fpstate in general, which remains within the core code.

Extend kernel_fpu_begin_mask() to include AMX state initialization,
providing the in-field scan driver code access to the appropriate
initialization method while maintaining compliance with established FPU
API semantics.

The necessity for AMX initialization is clarified in the Intel Software
Development Manual as of March 2024, particularly in Section 18.2
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR SYSTEM SOFTWARE of Vol. 1.

Side note: restore_fpregs_from_fpstate() also sets the x87 state to a
fixed value. However, this only applies to AMD CPUs with the FXSAVE_LEAK
quirk.
