From 9ba6b79102a594293c79f30319cabf476c5e300e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Wed, 27 May 2015 12:22:29 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] x86/fpu: Optimize fpu__activate_fpstate_read() fpu__activate_fpstate_read() is used before FPU registers are read from the fpstate by ptrace and core dumping. It's not necessary to unlazy non-current child tasks in this case, since the reading of registers is non-destructive.
