Subject: [PATCH 7/7] x86/speculation: Remove most ANNOTATE_NOSPEC_ALTERNATIVE
Date: Thu,  2 Apr 2020 10:22:20 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200402082220.808-8-alexandre.chartre@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200402082220.808-1-alexandre.chartre@oracle.com>

Now that intra-function calls and retpoline return instructions have
been annotated and that they are supported by objtool, almost all
ANNOTATE_NOSPEC_ALTERNATIVE can be removed.

ANNOTATE_NOSPEC_ALTERNATIVE is still needed when using the
__FILL_RETURN_BUFFER macro because it loops on intra-function calls
and objtool doesn't handle loops modifying the stack pointer.
