[PATCHv5 08/13] selftests/bpf: Emit nop,nop10 instructions combo for x86_64 arch

From: Jiri Olsa <jolsa@kernel.org>
Date: 2026-07-01 11:15:10
Also in: bpf
Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), bpf [selftests] (test runners & infrastructure), kernel selftest framework, the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Shuah Khan, Linus Torvalds

Syncing latest usdt.h change [1].

Now that we have nop10 optimization support in kernel, let's emit
nop,nop10 for usdt probe. We leave it up to the library to use
desirable nop instruction.

[1] TBD
