[Libjit-developers] Alignment of branch targets

[ktreichel]

Hi,

i've made a small patch for aligning blocks which are branch targets but are 
not entered via top.

This gives improvements on my AMD box.

The alignment is specified at the top.

To disable the block alignment simply don't define X86_BRANCH_TARGET_ALIGN.

Maybe the alignment should be set depending on the CPU.

You can play around with the values 0x4, 0x8 and 0x10  (0x10 is recommended in 
the intel docs).

Cheers,

Klaus
