[PATCH 04/23] x86/fpu: Add members to struct fpu to cache permission information

From: Chang S. Bae
Date: Thu Oct 21 2021 - 19:05:08 EST


From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Dynamically enabled features can be requested by any thread of a running
process at any time. The request does neither enable the feature nor
allocate larger buffers. It just stores the permission to use the feature
by adding the features to the permission bitmap and by calculating the
required sizes for kernel and user space.

The reallocation of the kernel buffer happens when the feature is used for
the first time which is caught by an exception. The permission bitmap is
then checked and if the feature is permitted, then it becomes fully
enabled. If not, the task dies similar to a task which uses an undefined
instruction.

The size information is precomputed to allow proper sigaltstack size checks
once the feature is permitted, but not yet in use because otherwise this
would open race windows where too small stacks could be installed causing
a later fail on signal delivery.

Initialize them to the default feature set and sizes.
