From 46db09d3fd847f185a7d23a96bc8fe7a4be0cd05 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jan Beulich Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2011 11:17:45 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] x86-64: Slightly shorten line system call entry and exit paths GET_THREAD_INFO() involves a memory read immediately followed by an "sub" on the value read, in turn (in several cases) immediately followed by a use of the calculated value as the base address of a memory access. This combination of instructions has a non-negligible potential for stalls. In the system call entry point code, however, the (fixed) offset of the stack pointer from the end of the stack is generally known, and hence we can instead avoid the memory load and subtract, and instead do the memory reference using %rsp as the base register. To do so in a legible fashion, introduce a THREAD_INFO() macro which, provided a register (generally %rsp) and the known offset from the end of the stack, produces a suitable memory access operand. The patch attempts to only touch the fast paths (no auditing and alike), but manages to do so only in the 64-bit entry point case; the compatibility mode entry points have so many interdependencies between their various branch targets that it was necessary to also adjust the slow paths to eliminate the risk of having missed some register dependency during code analysis.
