commit379eb01c21upstream. The value of FP registers in the core dump file comes from the thread.fstate. However, kernel saves the FP registers to the thread.fstate only before scheduling out the process. If no process switch happens during the exception handling process, kernel will not have a chance to save the latest value of FP registers to thread.fstate. It will cause the value of FP registers in the core dump file may be incorrect. To solve this problem, this patch force lets kernel save the FP register into the thread.fstate if the target task_struct equals the current.

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.
