We can also move the CLD, SWAPGS, and the switch_to_thread_stack() call to the interrupt_entry() helper function. As we do not want call depths of two, convert switch_to_thread_stack() to a macro. However, switch_to_thread_stack() has another user in entry_64_compat.S, which currently expects it to be a function. To keep the code changes in this patch minimal, create a wrapper function. The switch to a macro means that there is some binary code duplication if CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y is enabled. Therefore, the size reduction differs whether CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION is enabled or not: CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y (-0.13k): text data bss dec hex filename 17158 0 0 17158 4306 entry_64.o-orig 17028 0 0 17028 4284 entry_64.o CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=n (-0.27k): text data bss dec hex filename 17158 0 0 17158 4306 entry_64.o-orig 16882 0 0 16882 41f2 entry_64.o Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net> Acked-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Cc: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org> Cc: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com> Cc: H.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
