I've done something very similar in the thread I posted a few years ago.Right so that was before spectre where a virtual call was cheaper :(Sorry, I meant days, not years. The whole point of the thread was the slowdowns due to retpolines, which are the software spectre mitigation.
Oh that makes sense then. Could you post a pointer pls so this patchset is rebased on top (there are things to change about 4/4 but 1-3 could go in if they don't add overhead)? -- MST
