![]() Really swap arguments #4 and #5 in stub32_clone instead of "optimizing" it into a move. Yes, tls_val is currently unused. Yes, on some CPUs XCHG is a little bit more expensive than MOV. But a cycle or two on an expensive syscall like clone() is way below noise floor, and this optimization is simply not worth the obfuscation of logic. [ There's also ongoing work on the clone() ABI by Josh Triplett that will depend on this change later on. ] Signed-off-by: Denys Vlasenko <dvlasenk@redhat.com> Cc: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@plumgrid.com> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Brian Gerst <brgerst@gmail.com> Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: H.
