mainlining shenanigans
4185b3b927
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 (amluto).
- Document stuff so that we don't forget.
- Fix:
ld: lib/test_fpu.o: in function `test_fpu_get':
>> test_fpu.c:(.text+0x16e): undefined reference to `__sanitizer_cov_trace_cmpd'
>> ld: test_fpu.c:(.text+0x1a7): undefined reference to `__sanitizer_cov_trace_cmpd'
ld: test_fpu.c:(.text+0x1e0): undefined reference to `__sanitizer_cov_trace_cmpd'

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
