From 9f2f79e3a3c19ae745d0439d6e0eed31df28de3c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Date: Thu, 1 Mar 2012 15:47:44 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: Disable interrupts in 64-bit kernel FP and vector faults If we get a floating point, altivec or vsx unavaible interrupt in kernel, we trigger a kernel error. There is no point preserving the interrupt state, in fact, that can even make debugging harder as the processor state might change (we may even preempt) between taking the exception and landing in a debugger. So just make those 3 disable interrupts unconditionally. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt --- v2: On BookE only disable when hitting the kernel unavailable path, otherwise it will fail to restore softe as fast_exception_return doesn't do it. --- Reading git-format-patch failed
