Subject: [PATCH] x86/entry/compat: Add missing CLAC to entry_INT80_32
Date: Wed, 24 Feb 2016 12:18:49 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b02b7e71ae54074be01fc171cbd4b72517055c0e.1456345086.git.luto@kernel.org> (raw)
This doesn't seem to fix a regression -- I don't think the CLAC was
ever there.
I double-checked in a debugger: entries through the int80 gate do
not automatically clear AC.
Stable maintainers: I can provide a backport to 4.3 and earlier if
needed. This needs to be backported all the way to 3.10.
