From 5635d99953f04b550738f6f4c1c532667c3fd872 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Sun, 25 Nov 2018 19:33:48 +0100 Subject: x86/speculation: Avoid __switch_to_xtra() calls The TIF_SPEC_IB bit does not need to be evaluated in the decision to invoke __switch_to_xtra() when: - CONFIG_SMP is disabled - The conditional STIPB mode is disabled The TIF_SPEC_IB bit still controls IBPB in both cases so the TIF work mask checks might invoke __switch_to_xtra() for nothing if TIF_SPEC_IB is the only set bit in the work masks. Optimize it out by masking the bit at compile time for CONFIG_SMP=n and at run time when the static key controlling the conditional STIBP mode is disabled.
