[PATCH] FreeBSD-SA-06:14.fpu

[Matthew Dillon]

:>
:> By the way, following command could be used to check how kernel has
:> been compiled, regarding the CPU_FXSAVE_LEAK option:
:>
:> objdump -x /boot/kernel/kernel | grep fpu_clean_state

:The patch looks fine to me, but can it be CPU_FXSAVE_NOLEAK ?
:so only people know the problem will turn it on.

    I don't think it really needs to be optioned.  Since the FPU state
    is demand-loaded from a trap/exception anyway, a huge amount of code
    is run in the same path that fpu_clean_state is called from. 
    fpu_clean_state itself only eats a few nanoseconds (like maybe ~1/10
    of the time that fninit takes).
