arc: clone: Fix CLONE_THREAD detection
For thread group case (CLONE_THREAD), the cached PID of new process/thread need not be reset. The old logic to decide that was flawed as it would be true only for exact combination of CLONE_THREAD + _VM, but would fail for CLONE_THREAD + _VM + _xyz. More detailed tear-down of current and new code below. Current implementation is: --------------------->8-------------------- ; r12 contains clone flags mov_s r2, CLONE_THREAD_N_VM; r2 contains bit mask and_s r2, r2, r12 ; r2 contains bit mask AND clone flags ; but r12 still contains the same flags brne r2, r12, .Lgo_thread ; here we compare modified mask with ; flags as they were and skip pthread TID/PID ; setup if r2 != r12 which happens all ; the time except clone flags were ; exactly CLONE_THREAD | CLONE_VM --------------------->8-------------------- New implementation is: --------------------->8-------------------- ; r12 contains clone flags mov_s r2, CLONE_THREAD_N_VM; r2 contains bit mask and_s r12, r12, r2 ; r12 contains clone flags AND bit mask ; i.e. we did mask all flags except ; CLONE_THREAD and CLONE_VM breq r2, r12, .Lgo_thread ; here we compare masked flags with ; target mask and if they match we skip ; pthread TID/PID setup --------------------->8-------------------- Signed-off-by: Alexey Brodkin <abrodkin@synopsys.com> Acked-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com>
