90 conditions even cheaper to execute within the kernel.

94 branches and include support for this optimization technique.

96 If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
97 the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
98 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
99 nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
100 conditional block of instructions.

102 This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
103 of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update

187 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
188 for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
189 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
190 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
191 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
192 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
193 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
194 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
195 should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
196 hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>. But just in case it
197 does, the use of the builtins is optional.
cf66bb93 198
9f79ffc1
JH
199 Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
200 instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
201 on architectures that don't have such instructions.

1526 Where an architecture does not select HAVE_STATIC_CALL_INLINE, any
1527 call to a preemption function will go through a trampoline, and the
1528 trampoline will be patched.

1530 It is strongly advised to support inline static call to avoid any

1541 Each preemption function will be given an early return based on a
1542 static key. This should have slightly lower overhead than non-inline
1543 static calls, as this effectively inlines each trampoline into the
1544 start of its callee. This may avoid redundant work, and may
1545 integrate better with CFI schemes.
99cf983c 1546

1547 This will have greater overhead than using inline static calls as
1548 the call to the preemption function cannot be entirely elided.

1553 An arch should select this symbol once all linker sections are explicitly
1554 included, size-asserted, or discarded in the linker scripts. This is
1555 important because we never want expected sections to be placed heuristically
1556 by the linker, since the locations of such sections can change between linker
1557 versions.
