4.15-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Dominik Brodowski <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit dde3036d62ba3375840b10ab9ec0d568fd773b07 upstream. Previously, error_entry() and paranoid_entry() saved the GP registers onto stack space previously allocated by its callers. Combine these two steps in the callers, and use the generic PUSH_AND_CLEAR_REGS macro for that. This adds a significant amount ot text size. However, Ingo Molnar points out that: "these numbers also _very_ significantly over-represent the extra footprint. The assumptions that resulted in us compressing the IRQ entry code have changed very significantly with the new x86 IRQ allocation code we introduced in the last year: - IRQ vectors are usually populated in tightly clustered groups. With our new vector allocator code the typical per CPU allocation percentage on x86 systems is ~3 device vectors and ~10 fixed vectors out of ~220 vectors - i.e. a very low ~6% utilization (!). [...] The days where we allocated a lot of vectors on every CPU and the compression of the IRQ entry code text mattered are over. - Another issue is that only a small minority of vectors is frequent enough to actually matter to cache utilization in practice: 3-4 key IPIs and 1-2 device IRQs at most - and those vectors tend to be tightly clustered as well into about two groups, and are probably already on 2-3 cache lines in practice. For the common case of 'cache cold' IRQs it's the depth of the call chain and the fragmentation of the resulting I$ that should be the main performance limit - not the overall size of it. - The CPU side cost of IRQ delivery is still very expensive even in the best, most cached case, as in 'over a thousand cycles'. So much stuff is done that maybe contemporary x86 IRQ entry microcode already prefetches the IDT entry and its expected call target address."[*] [*] http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180208094710.qnjixhm6hybebdv7@xxxxxxxxx The "testb $3, CS(%rsp)" instruction in the idtentry macro does not need modification. Previously, %rsp was manually decreased by 15*8; with this patch, %rsp is decreased by 15 pushq instructions.
