From b34006c4258c9c86597b6b7123d6a9a3513d6cd7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ard Biesheuvel Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2018 23:51:41 -0700 Subject: x86/jump_table: Use relative references Similar to the arm64 case, 64-bit x86 can benefit from using relative references rather than absolute ones when emitting struct jump_entry instances. Not only does this reduce the memory footprint of the entries themselves by 33%, it also removes the need for carrying relocation metadata on relocatable builds (i.e., for KASLR) which saves a fair chunk of .init space as well (although the savings are not as dramatic as on arm64) Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Cc: linux-s390@vger.kernel.org Cc: Arnd Bergmann Cc: Heiko Carstens Cc: Kees Cook Cc: Will Deacon Cc: Catalin Marinas Cc: Steven Rostedt Cc: Martin Schwidefsky Cc: Jessica Yu Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180919065144.25010-7-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org --- arch/x86/Kconfig | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'arch/x86/Kconfig') diff --git a/arch/x86/Kconfig b/arch/x86/Kconfig index 1a0be022f91d..603f374f871d 100644 --- a/arch/x86/Kconfig +++ b/arch/x86/Kconfig @@ -119,6 +119,7 @@ config X86 select HAVE_ARCH_AUDITSYSCALL select HAVE_ARCH_HUGE_VMAP if X86_64 || X86_PAE select HAVE_ARCH_JUMP_LABEL + select HAVE_ARCH_JUMP_LABEL_RELATIVE select HAVE_ARCH_KASAN if X86_64 select HAVE_ARCH_KGDB select HAVE_ARCH_MMAP_RND_BITS if MMU -- cgit v1.2.3-59-g8ed1b
