From 7e70d9c05012b313d8fd496601d5c3a41ffe31b8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Tue, 14 Jun 2022 23:15:36 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] x86/retpoline: Use -mfunction-return commit 0b53c374b9eff2255a386f1f1cfb9a928e52a5ae upstream. Utilize -mfunction-return=thunk-extern when available to have the compiler replace RET instructions with direct JMPs to the symbol __x86_return_thunk. This does not affect assembler (.S) sources, only C sources. -mfunction-return=thunk-extern has been available since gcc 7.3 and clang 15.
