Applied to 4.14.13 & built on 3 machines with different old CPUs (Core2Duo, i5/i7 SandyBridge), current gcc 7.2.0 still without retpoline magic (so syscalls only). Ensured CONFIG_RETPOLINE is enabled. No regressions, no filesystems on fire, no spontaneous reboots. Also gave this a syscall-heavy workout with iperf, still pushing >10 GB/s locally just as before (within expected deviation). perf bench shows some expected impact though, ~0.2-0.3 µs for scheduling. cheers, Holger
