2024-10-23um: switch to regset API and depend on XSTATEBenjamin Berg
The PTRACE_GETREGSET API has now existed since Linux 2.6.33. The XSAVE CPU feature should also be sufficiently common to be able to rely on it. With this, define our internal FP state to be the hosts XSAVE data. Add discovery for the hosts XSAVE size and place the FP registers at the end of task_struct so that we can adjust the size at runtime. Next we can implement the regset API on top and update the signal handling as well as ptrace APIs to use them. Also switch coredump creation to use the regset API and finally set HAVE_ARCH_TRACEHOOK. This considerably improves the signal frames. Previously they might not have contained all the registers (i386) and also did not have the sizes and magic values set to the correct values to permit userspace to decode the frame. As a side effect, this will permit UML to run on hosts with newer CPU extensions (such as AMX) that need even more register state.

2016-05-21um: add extended processor state save/restore supportEli Cooper
This patch extends save_fp_registers() and restore_fp_registers() to use PTRACE_GETREGSET and PTRACE_SETREGSET with the XSTATE note type, adding support for new processor state extensions between context switches. When the new ptrace requests are unavailable, it falls back to the old PTRACE_GETFPREGS and PTRACE_SETFPREGS methods, which have been renamed to save_i387_registers() and restore_i387_registers(). Now these functions expect *fp_regs to have the space of an _xstate struct. Thus, this also makes ptrace in UML responde to PTRACE_GETFPREGS/_SETFPREG requests with a user_i387_struct (thus independent from HOST_FP_SIZE), and by calling save_i387_registers() and restore_i387_registers() instead of the extended save_fp_registers() and restore_fp_registers() functions.
