[PATCH v1 12/12] x86, alternative: Cleanup prefetch primitives
From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Tue Feb 03 2015 - 13:17:40 EST
From: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx>
This is based on a patch originally by hpa.
With the current improvements to the alternatives, we can simply use %P1
as a mem8 operand constraint and rely on the toolchain to generate the
proper instruction sizes. For example, on 32-bit, where we use an empty
old instruction we get:
[ 2.226656] apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c104648b, len: 4), repl: (c195566c, len: 4)
[ 2.228005] c104648b: alt_insn: 90 90 90 90
[ 2.230534] c195566c: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 4b 5c
...
[ 3.653760] apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c18e09b4, len: 3), repl: (c1955948, len: 3)
[ 3.656004] c18e09b4: alt_insn: 90 90 90
[ 3.658101] c1955948: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 08
...
[ 4.200010] apply_alternatives: feat: 6*32+8, old: (c1190cf9, len: 7), repl: (c1955a79, len: 7)
[ 4.204004] c1190cf9: alt_insn: 90 90 90 90 90 90 90
[ 4.206809] c1955a79: rpl_insn: 0f 0d 0d a0 d4 85 c1
all with the proper padding done depending on the size of the
replacement instruction the compiler generates.
