Subject: [PATCH v2 13/15] x86/lib/memset_64.S: Convert to ALTERNATIVE_2 macro
Date: Tue, 24 Feb 2015 12:14:55 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1424776497-3180-14-git-send-email-bp@alien8.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1424776497-3180-1-git-send-email-bp@alien8.de>
From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>
Make alternatives replace single JMPs instead of whole memset functions,
thus decreasing the amount of instructions copied during patching time
at boot.
While at it, make it use the REP_GOOD version by default which means
alternatives NOP out the JMP to the other versions, as REP_GOOD is set
by default on the majority of relevant x86 processors.
