Because they all really check if we can access data structures/visual
constructs where a "jump" instruction targets code in the same function,
i.e. things like:
__pthread_mutex_lock /usr/lib64/libpthread-2.26.so
1.95 │ mov __pthread_force_elision,%ecx
│ ┌──test %ecx,%ecx
0.07 │ ├──je 60
│ │ test $0x300,%esi
│ │↓ jne 60
│ │ or $0x100,%esi
│ │ mov %esi,0x10(%rdi)
│ 42:│ mov %esi,%edx
│ │ lea 0x16(%r8),%rsi
│ │ mov %r8,%rdi
│ │ and $0x80,%edx
│ │ add $0x8,%rsp
│ │→ jmpq __lll_lock_elision
│ │ nop
0.29 │ 60:└─→and $0x80,%esi
0.07 │ mov $0x1,%edi
0.29 │ xor %eax,%eax
2.53 │ lock cmpxchg %edi,(%r8)
And not things like that "jmpq __lll_lock_elision", that instead should behave
like a "call" instruction and "jump" to the disassembly of "___lll_lock_elision".

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
