From 5e1a646204deb0efd0e0bbc1730ac11dcb39f8fb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mikulas Patocka Date: Wed, 6 Sep 2017 22:41:21 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] crypto: crc32-pclmul - remove useless relative addressing In 32-bit mode, the x86 architecture can hold full 32-bit pointers. Therefore, the code that copies the current address to the %ecx register and uses %ecx-relative addressing is useless, we could just use absolute addressing. The processors have a stack of return addresses for branch prediction. If we use a call instruction and pop the return address, it desynchronizes the return stack and causes branch prediction misses. This patch also moves the data to the .rodata section.
