Subject: [PATCH 2/7] PowerPC: add unlikely() to BUG_ON()
Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2011 20:12:31 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1296130356-29896-3-git-send-email-bosong.ly@taobao.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1296130356-29896-1-git-send-email-bosong.ly@taobao.com>

Current BUG_ON() arch/powerpc/include/asm/bug.h does not use unlikely(),
in order to get better branch predict result, source code may have to call
BUG_ON() with unlikely() explicitly. This is not a suggested method
to use BUG_ON().

This patch adds unlikely() inside BUG_ON implementation on PPC
code, callers can use BUG_ON without explicit unlikely() now.

I don't have any PPC hardware to compile and test this fix, any feedback
of this patch is welcome.
