The goal was just to move .hot and .unlikely all together, so that they are clustered and use the minimum amount of cache. On x86 doesn't matter where they are exactly, as long as each is together. If they are not explicitely listed then the linker interleaves them with the normal text, which defeats the purpose. -Andi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arch" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
