From 909a4069da65a5cfca8c968edf9f0d99f694d2f3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mark Rutland Date: Tue, 24 Jun 2014 16:51:34 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] arm64: head.S: remove unnecessary function alignment Currently __turn_mmu_on is aligned to 64 bytes to ensure that it doesn't span any page boundary, which simplifies the idmap and spares us requiring an additional page table to map half of the function. In keeping with other important requirements in architecture code, this fact is undocumented. Additionally, as the function consists of three instructions totalling 12 bytes with no literal pool data, a smaller alignment of 16 bytes would be sufficient. This patch reduces the alignment to 16 bytes and documents the underlying reason for the alignment. This reduces the required alignment of the entire .head.text section from 64 bytes to 16 bytes, though it may still be aligned to a larger value depending on TEXT_OFFSET.
