This is really really inefficient. Both the second ldr and tst will stall the pipeline because they need to wait for the result of the precending ldr. Can we do better by re-ordering some instructions? Also, the ifndef seems incorrect - if we have TLS_REG_EMUL we seem to omit all this code. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
