Use try_cmpxchg64 instead of cmpxchg64 (*ptr, old, new) != old in pi_try_set_control. cmpxchg returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg): b9: 88 44 24 60 mov %al,0x60(%rsp) bd: 48 89 c8 mov %rcx,%rax c0: c6 44 24 62 f2 movb $0xf2,0x62(%rsp) c5: 48 8b 74 24 60 mov 0x60(%rsp),%rsi ca: f0 49 0f b1 34 24 lock cmpxchg %rsi,(%r12) d0: 48 39 c1 cmp %rax,%rcx d3: 75 cf jne a4 <vmx_vcpu_pi_load+0xa4> patched: c1: 88 54 24 60 mov %dl,0x60(%rsp) c5: c6 44 24 62 f2 movb $0xf2,0x62(%rsp) ca: 48 8b 54 24 60 mov 0x60(%rsp),%rdx cf: f0 48 0f b1 13 lock cmpxchg %rdx,(%rbx) d4: 75 d5 jne ab <vmx_vcpu_pi_load+0xab> Signed-off-by: Uros Bizjak <ubizjak@gmail.com> Cc: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Cc: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com> Cc: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com> Cc: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@tencent.com> Cc: Jim Mattson <jmattson@google.com> Cc: Joerg Roedel <joro@8bytes.org> Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> Message-Id: <20220520143737.62513-1-ubizjak@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
