commit8eb060e101("arch/riscv: add Zihintpause support") broke building with CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE enabled (gcc 11.1.0): CC arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday.o In file included from <command-line>: ./arch/riscv/include/asm/jump_label.h: In function 'cpu_relax': ././include/linux/compiler_types.h:285:33: warning: 'asm' operand 0 probably does not match constraints 285 | #define asm_volatile_goto(x...) asm goto(x) | ^~~ ./arch/riscv/include/asm/jump_label.h:41:9: note: in expansion of macro 'asm_volatile_goto' 41 | asm_volatile_goto( | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ././include/linux/compiler_types.h:285:33: error: impossible constraint in 'asm' 285 | #define asm_volatile_goto(x...) asm goto(x) | ^~~ ./arch/riscv/include/asm/jump_label.h:41:9: note: in expansion of macro 'asm_volatile_goto' 41 | asm_volatile_goto( | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ make[1]: *** [scripts/Makefile.build:249: arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/vgettimeofday.o] Error 1 make: *** [arch/riscv/Makefile:128: vdso_prepare] Error 2 Having a static branch in cpu_relax() is problematic because that function is widely inlined, including in some quite complex functions like in the VDSO. A quick measurement shows this static branch is responsible by itself for around 40% of the jump table. Drop the static branch, which ends up being the same number of instructions anyway. If Zihintpause is supported, we trade the nop from the static branch for a div. If Zihintpause is unsupported, we trade the jump from the static branch for (what gets interpreted as) a nop.

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.
