For c code:
```c
extern int xx;
void test(void)
{
if (WARN_ONCE(xx, "x"))
__asm__ volatile ("nop":::);
}
```
Clang will generate the following assembly code:
```assemble
test:
movl xx(%rip), %eax // Assume xx == 0 (likely case)
testl %eax, %eax // judge once
je .LBB0_3 // jump to .LBB0_3
testb $1, test.__already_done(%rip)
je .LBB0_2
.LBB0_3:
testl %eax, %eax // judge again
je .LBB0_5 // jump to .LBB0_5
.LBB0_4:
nop
.LBB0_5:
retq
// omit
```
In the above code, `xx == 0` should be a likely case, but in this case,
xx has been judged twice.
Test info:
1. kernel source:
linux-next
commit 9c0826a5d9aa4d52206d ("Add linux-next specific files for 20251107")
2. compiler:
clang: Debian clang version 21.1.4 (8) with
Debian LLD 21.1.4 (compatible with GNU linkers)
3. config:
base on default x86_64_defconfig, and setting:
CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETHUNK=n
CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR=n
Add unlikely to __ret_cond to help the compiler optimize correctly.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
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.
