From c8c81458863ab686cda4fe1e603fccaae0f12460 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pawan Gupta Date: Thu, 20 Mar 2025 11:13:15 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86/speculation: Remove the extra #ifdef around CALL_NOSPEC Commit: 010c4a461c1d ("x86/speculation: Simplify and make CALL_NOSPEC consistent") added an #ifdef CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE around the CALL_NOSPEC definition. This is not required as this code is already under a larger #ifdef. Remove the extra #ifdef, no functional change. vmlinux size remains same before and after this change: CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE=y: text data bss dec hex filename 25434752 7342290 2301212 35078254 217406e vmlinux.before 25434752 7342290 2301212 35078254 217406e vmlinux.after # CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE is not set: text data bss dec hex filename 22943094 6214994 1550152 30708240 1d49210 vmlinux.before 22943094 6214994 1550152 30708240 1d49210 vmlinux.after Signed-off-by: Pawan Gupta Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Reviewed-by: Josh Poimboeuf Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250320-call-nospec-extra-ifdef-v1-1-d9b084d24820@linux.intel.com --- arch/x86/include/asm/nospec-branch.h | 4 ---- 1 file changed, 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/x86/include/asm/nospec-branch.h b/arch/x86/include/asm/nospec-branch.h index 804b66a7686ad..29ea8fb162733 100644 --- a/arch/x86/include/asm/nospec-branch.h +++ b/arch/x86/include/asm/nospec-branch.h @@ -435,12 +435,8 @@ static inline void call_depth_return_thunk(void) {} * Inline asm uses the %V modifier which is only in newer GCC * which is ensured when CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE is defined. */ -#ifdef CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE #define CALL_NOSPEC __CS_PREFIX("%V[thunk_target]") \ "call __x86_indirect_thunk_%V[thunk_target]\n" -#else -#define CALL_NOSPEC "call *%[thunk_target]\n" -#endif # define THUNK_TARGET(addr) [thunk_target] "r" (addr) -- 2.50.1
