x86/paravirt: Use static_call() for the paravirt spinlock ops

2026-08-07T15:58:09+00:00

queued_spin_lock_slowpath() and queued_spin_unlock() are dispatched
through pv_ops_lock via the paravirt-ops ALTERNATIVE machinery, which
picks the target (native inline store / hypervisor call) once at boot
and cannot change at runtime.

Convert both to static_call(). The site becomes a direct call patched in
place (one byte smaller), and on native the unlock still collapses to
the inline "movb $0, (%rdi)" store, so the fast path is unchanged.

Unlike the ALTERNATIVE mechanism, a static_call() target can also be
updated at runtime via static_call_update(). This is a prerequisite for
the contended_release tracepoint, which has to swap in a traced unlock
while the system is running.

[ ilvokhin: commit message; fix PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS=n build; teach
  __static_call_validate() about the inline unlock insn; make the
  slowpath site module-safe: static_call_mod() +
  EXPORT_STATIC_CALL_TRAMP(); pass @lock to the callee-save unlock,
  fixing a boot hang under CALL_DEPTH_TRACKING. Boot tested native + KVM
  PV guest. ]

x86/alternative: Drop smp_locks glue

2026-07-13T16:23:36+00:00

This was there to be able to patch out locking instructions when running
a SMP kernel build on a UP CPU. The times are long gone when single-CPU
x86 machines were relevant so drop that machinery and simplify the code
considerably.

LOCK_PREFIX needs to stay for when one wants to do a UP build for
whatever reason. That'll go away when CONFIG_SMP becomes unconditional.

Kill a bunch of leftover, unused prototypes while at it.

   comparisons to the numeric ELF e_machine field across the codebase
   (capstone, print_insn, c2c, lock-contention, sort, sample-raw,
   machine, header), making cross-analysis more robust
