Subject: [PATCH 0/2] KVM: VMX: Stub out enable_evmcs static key
Date: Wed,  8 Feb 2023 20:54:28 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230208205430.1424667-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)

Stub out the enable_evmcs static key for CONFIG_HYPERV=n.  gcc (as of
gcc-12) isn't clever enough to elide the nop placeholder when there's no
code guarded by a static branch.  With gcc-12, because of the vast number
of VMCS accesses, eliminating the nops reduces the size of kvm-intel.ko by
~7.5% (200KiB).

Patch 1 is tangentially related cleanup.

Applies on `git@github.com:kvm-x86/linux.git vmx`.
