From: Loren Merritt <pengv...@akuvian.org> Now RET checks whether it immediately follows a branch, so the programmer dosen't have to keep track of that condition. REP_RET is still needed manually when it's a branch target, but that's much rarer. The implementation involves lots of spurious labels, but that's ok because we strip them. --- libavutil/x86/x86inc.asm | 36 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 31 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
