| H A D | neon.h | 73c132c1 Thu May 16 04:41:48 CDT 2013 Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> ARM: add support for kernel mode NEON
In order to safely support the use of NEON instructions in
kernel mode, some precautions need to be taken:
- the userland context that may be present in the registers (even
if the NEON/VFP is currently disabled) must be stored under the
correct task (which may not be 'current' in the UP case),
- to avoid having to keep track of additional vfpstates for the
kernel side, disallow the use of NEON in interrupt context
and run with preemption disabled,
- after use, re-enable preemption and re-enable the lazy restore
machinery by disabling the NEON/VFP unit.
This patch adds the functions kernel_neon_begin() and
kernel_neon_end() which take care of the above. It also adds
the Kconfig symbol KERNEL_MODE_NEON to enable it.
