71c5905afbSIngo Molnar	 Certain performance-sensitive kernel code, such as trace points,

73c5905afbSIngo Molnar	 branches and include support for this optimization technique.
74c5905afbSIngo Molnar
75c5905afbSIngo Molnar         If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
76c5905afbSIngo Molnar	 the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
77c5905afbSIngo Molnar	 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the
78c5905afbSIngo Molnar	 nop will be converted to a jump instruction to execute the
79c5905afbSIngo Molnar	 conditional block of instructions.
80c5905afbSIngo Molnar
81c5905afbSIngo Molnar	 This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction
82c5905afbSIngo Molnar	 of the processor and generally makes the kernel faster. The update

160cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions

162cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
163cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
164cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
165cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
166cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
167cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
168cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the

170cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 does, the use of the builtins is optional.

9597a46ec0eSKees Cook	  An architecture selects this when it has implemented refcount_t
9607a46ec0eSKees Cook	  using open coded assembly primitives that provide an optimized
9617a46ec0eSKees Cook	  refcount_t implementation, possibly at the expense of some full
9627a46ec0eSKees Cook	  refcount state checks of CONFIG_REFCOUNT_FULL=y.
9637a46ec0eSKees Cook
9647a46ec0eSKees Cook	  The refcount overflow check behavior, however, must be retained.
9657a46ec0eSKees Cook	  Catching overflows is the primary security concern for protecting
9667a46ec0eSKees Cook	  against bugs in reference counts.

971fd25d19fSKees Cook	  Enabling this switches the refcounting infrastructure from a fast
972fd25d19fSKees Cook	  unchecked atomic_t implementation to a fully state checked
973fd25d19fSKees Cook	  implementation, which can be (slightly) slower but provides protections
974fd25d19fSKees Cook	  against various use-after-free conditions that can be used in
975fd25d19fSKees Cook	  security flaw exploits.
