| |
From: Yu-cheng Yu <yu-cheng.yu@intel.com>
In XSAVES mode if fpstate_init() is used to initialize a task's extended state area, xsave.header.xcomp_bv[63] must be set. Otherwise, when the task is scheduled, a warning is triggered from copy_kernel_to_xregs().
One such test case is: setting an invalid extended state through PTRACE. When xstateregs_set() rejects the syscall and re-initializes the task's extended state area. This triggers the warning mentioned above.
