emulate_step() is not checking runtime VSX feature flag before emulating an instruction. This is causing kernel crash when kernel is compiled with CONFIG_VSX=y but running on a machine where VSX is not supported or disabled. Ex, while running emulate_step tests on P6 machine: Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 4 [#1] NIP [c000000000095c24] .load_vsrn+0x28/0x54 LR [c000000000094bdc] .emulate_loadstore+0x167c/0x17b0 Call Trace: 0x40fe240c7ae147ae (unreliable) .emulate_loadstore+0x167c/0x17b0 .emulate_step+0x25c/0x5bc .test_lxvd2x_stxvd2x+0x64/0x154 .test_emulate_step+0x38/0x4c .do_one_initcall+0x5c/0x2c0 .kernel_init_freeable+0x314/0x4cc .kernel_init+0x24/0x160 .ret_from_kernel_thread+0x58/0xb4 With fix: emulate_step_test: lxvd2x : FAIL emulate_step_test: stxvd2x : FAIL Reported-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Ravi Bangoria <ravi.bangoria@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> |

README
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. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
