Subject: [PATCH 0/4]  [PATCH 0/4] Introduce %rip-relative addressing to PER_CPU_VAR macro
Date: Thu, 12 Oct 2023 18:10:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231012161237.114733-1-ubizjak@gmail.com> (raw)

The following patch series introduces %rip-relative addressing to
PER_CPU_VAR macro. Instruction with %rip-relative address operand is
one byte shorter than its absolute address counterpart and is also
compatible with position independent executable (-fpie) build.

The first three patches are cleanups that fix various inconsistencies
throughout the assembly code.

The last patch introduces (%rip) suffix and uses it for x86_64 target,
resulting in a small code size decrease:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
25510677        4386685  808388 30705750        1d48856 vmlinux-new.o
25510629        4386685  808388 30705702        1d48826 vmlinux-old.o

Patch series is against current mainline and can be applied independently
of the ongoing percpu work.
