It probably wouldn't be even measurable... Couldn't agree more. Obviously enc_bit is redundent here. We only check eax each time, removing it can fix the RIP-relative addressing issue in kexec. diff --git a/arch/x86/boot/compressed/mem_encrypt.S b/arch/x86/boot/compressed/mem_encrypt.S index eaa843a52907..0b60eb867d25 100644 --- a/arch/x86/boot/compressed/mem_encrypt.S +++ b/arch/x86/boot/compressed/mem_encrypt.S @@ -27,19 +27,6 @@ ENTRY(get_sev_encryption_bit) push %edx push %edi - /* - * RIP-relative addressing is needed to access the encryption bit - * variable.
