When a static call is updated with __static_call_return0() as target, arch_static_call_transform() set it to use an optimised set of instructions which are meant to lay in the same cacheline. But when initialising a static call with DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0(), we get a branch to the real __static_call_return0() function instead of getting the optimised setup: c00d8120 <__SCT__perf_snapshot_branch_stack>: c00d8120: 4b ff ff f4 b c00d8114 <__static_call_return0> c00d8124: 3d 80 c0 0e lis r12,-16370 c00d8128: 81 8c 81 3c lwz r12,-32452(r12) c00d812c: 7d 89 03 a6 mtctr r12 c00d8130: 4e 80 04 20 bctr c00d8134: 38 60 00 00 li r3,0 c00d8138: 4e 80 00 20 blr c00d813c: 00 00 00 00 .long 0x0 Add ARCH_DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0_TRAMP() defined by each architecture to setup the optimised configuration, and rework DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0() to call it: c00d8120 <__SCT__perf_snapshot_branch_stack>: c00d8120: 48 00 00 14 b c00d8134 <__SCT__perf_snapshot_branch_stack+0x14> c00d8124: 3d 80 c0 0e lis r12,-16370 c00d8128: 81 8c 81 3c lwz r12,-32452(r12) c00d812c: 7d 89 03 a6 mtctr r12 c00d8130: 4e 80 04 20 bctr c00d8134: 38 60 00 00 li r3,0 c00d8138: 4e 80 00 20 blr c00d813c: 00 00 00 00 .long 0x0 Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: Josh Poimboeuf <jpoimboe@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/1e0a61a88f52a460f62a58ffc2a5f847d1f7d9d8.1647253456.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
