How painful would it be to inline the damn thing?
<looks>
static inline u64 gen8_canonical_addr(u64 address)
{
return sign_extend64(address, GEN8_HIGH_ADDRESS_BIT);
}
static inline __s64 sign_extend64(__u64 value, int index)
{
__u8 shift = 63 - index;
return (__s64)(value << shift) >> shift;
}
What the hell? Josh, what kind of .config do you have that these are
_not_ inlined? And why not mark gen8_canonical_addr() __always_inline?
