Re: [PATCH 5/7] x86/jump labels: Use etiher 5 byte or 2 byte jumps

[Steven Rostedt]

Here's my numbers from the latest changes. They are not as big, perhaps
I had debug enabled too. I took a debian 3.0 config, enabled jump labels
and some tracing, did a make localyesconfig (something broke it as the
config still had modules that I had to manual convert to =y). Here's the
results:


gcc 4.6.0

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
14355064	1810272	5722112	21887448	14df9d8	vmlinux
14354490	1810400	5722112	21887002	14df81a	vmlinux-patched

It's only a 574 byte savings. That's not much. I wish I had the config I
used the first time. I may have had debug on that gave it a bigger
impact.

Attached is the config:
