87c5905afbSIngo Molnar	 If it is detected that the compiler has support for "asm goto",
88c5905afbSIngo Molnar	 the kernel will compile such branches with just a nop
89c5905afbSIngo Molnar	 instruction. When the condition flag is toggled to true, the

93c5905afbSIngo Molnar	 This technique lowers overhead and stress on the branch prediction

155cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	help
156cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
157cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
158cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
159cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
160cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
161cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
162cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
163cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
164cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
165cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>.  But just in case it
166cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 does, the use of the builtins is optional.
167cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse
168cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 Any architecture with load-and-swap or store-and-swap
169cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 instructions should set this. And it shouldn't hurt to set it
170cf66bb93SDavid Woodhouse	 on architectures that don't have such instructions.

9780e242208SHassan Naveed	  to save space. For example, MIPS architecture has a syscall array with
9790e242208SHassan Naveed	  entries at 4000, 5000 and 6000 locations. This option turns on syscall
