Subject: [PATCH v3 0/1] alpha: Add support for HAVE_ARCH_JUMP_LABEL
Date: Sat, 14 Nov 2026 10:48:18 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261114094826.1282965-1-linmag7@gmail.com> (raw)

This revision addresses Matt Turner's review of v2.

Changes since v2:
- Rebase onto the current local alpha-devel branch.
- Place HAVE_ARCH_JUMP_LABEL beside the other HAVE_ARCH selections.
- Warn and return without patching an out-of-range branch target.
- Remove the unused mutex include. Retain JUMP_LABEL_NOP_SIZE: the
  current generic jump_entry_size() requires it on Alpha.
- Clean up the duplicate NOP comment and extra blank line.
- Document the writable kernel and module text requirement.
- Retain Matt's Reviewed-by.

Batching I-cache synchronization and relative jump table entries remain
possible follow-ups.

The previous submission reported UP2000+ SMP tracepoint and stress
checks. Those results do not establish validation of this revision.
This revision cross-builds successfully with W=1 for Alpha SMP, with
CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL=y, CONFIG_STATIC_KEYS_SELFTEST=y and
CONFIG_TEST_STATIC_KEYS=m. On the ES40, the boot selftest passed and
the static-key test modules completed 10 load/unload cycles on each of
three CPUs (30 total), including cross-module keys. This used a combined
kernel with CMA v2. no new kernel warnings or faults appeared during
those tests.
