[PATCH 1/9] x86: Add intrinsics/macros for new rd/wr fs/gs base instructions

Show all headers | View raw

From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>

Add C intrinsics and assembler macros for the new rd/wr fs/gs base
instructions and for swapgs.

Very straight forward. Used in followon patch.

For assembler only a few standard registers used by entry_64.S
are defined.

v2: Use __always_inline
