[PATCH v2 4/4] drm/amd/display: Add DC_FP helper to check FPU state

Tue Jul 13 14:06:12 UTC 2021


To fully isolate FPU operations in a single place, we must avoid
situations where compilers spill FP values to registers due to FP enable
in a specific C file. Note that even if we isolate all FPU functions in
a single file and call its interface from other files, the compiler
might enable the use of FPU before we call DC_FP_START. Nevertheless, it
is the programmer's responsibility to invoke DC_FP_START/END in the
correct place. To highlight situations where developers forgot to use
the FP protection before calling the DC FPU interface functions, we
introduce a helper that checks if the function is invoked under FP
protection. If not, it will trigger a kernel warning.

Changes since V1:
- Remove fp_enable variables
- Rename dc_is_fp_enabled to dc_assert_fp_enabled
- Replace wrong variable type
