[PATCH v2 2/2] selftests/fpu: Add an FPU selftest

From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Wed Jun 24 2020 - 07:47:06 EST


From: Petteri Aimonen <jpa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Add a selftest for the usage of FPU code in kernel mode.

Currently only implemented for x86. In the future, kernel FPU testing
could be unified between the different architectures supporting it.

[ bp:

- Split out from a conglomerate patch, put comments over statements.
- run the test only on debugfs write.
- Add bare-minimum run_test_fpu.sh, run 1000 iterations on all CPUs
by default.
- Add conditionally -msse2 so that clang doesn't generate library
calls.
- Use cc-option to detect gcc 7.1 not supporting -mpreferred-stack-boundary=3.
- Document stuff so that we don't forget.
]
