Subject: [PATCH 03/13] jump_label/x86: Avoid decoding instructions for jump entry size
Date: Mon,  9 Nov 2026 20:49:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109194916.1089703-4-jolsa@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261109194916.1089703-1-jolsa@kernel.org>

Determine the jump entry size from its opcode or NOP encoding instead of
decoding the instruction. This reduces kprobe registration time when
checking jump label entries.
