So I deleted the "sfence" and now I just have a comment
at the 100: label.
37:
shl $6,%ecx
lea -48(%ecx,%edx),%edx
jmp 100f
38:
shl $6,%ecx
lea -56(%ecx,%edx),%edx
jmp 100f
39:
lea (%rdx,%rcx,8),%rdx
jmp 100f
40:
mov %ecx,%edx
100:
/* %rax set the fault number in fixup_exception() */
ret
Should I just change all the "jmp 100f" into "ret"? There
aren't any tools that will be confused that the function
has 10 returns, are there?
