Subject: [PATCH v4 05/10] x86/ibt: Optimize FineIBT sequence
Date: Mon, 24 Feb 2025 13:37:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250224124200.371942555@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20250224123703.843199044@infradead.org
Scott notes that non-taken branches are faster. Abuse overlapping code
that traps instead of explicit UD2 instructions.
And LEA does not modify flags and will have less dependencies.
Suggested-by: Scott Constable <scott.d.constable@intel.com>
