jump_label: Reduce the size of struct static_key
The static_key->next field goes mostly unused. The field is used for associating module uses with a static key. Most uses of struct static_key define a static key in the core kernel and make use of it entirely within the core kernel, or define the static key in a module and make use of it only from within that module. In fact, of the ~3,000 static keys defined, I found only about 5 or so that did not fit this pattern. Thus, we can remove the static_key->next field entirely and overload the static_key->entries field. That is, when all the static_key uses are contained within the same module, static_key->entries continues to point to those uses. However, if the static_key uses are not contained within the module where the static_key is defined, then we allocate a struct static_key_mod, store a pointer to the uses within that struct static_key_mod, and have the static key point at the static_key_mod. This does incur some extra memory usage when a static_key is used in a module that does not define it, but since there are only a handful of such cases there is a net savings. In order to identify if the static_key->entries pointer contains a struct static_key_mod or a struct jump_entry pointer, bit 1 of static_key->entries is set to 1 if it points to a struct static_key_mod and is 0 if it points to a struct jump_entry. We were already using bit 0 in a similar way to store the initial value of the static_key. This does mean that allocations of struct static_key_mod and that the struct jump_entry tables need to be at least 4-byte aligned in memory. As far as I can tell all arches meet this criteria. For my .config, the patch increased the text by 778 bytes, but reduced the data + bss size by 14912, for a net savings of 14,134 bytes. text data bss dec hex filename 8092427 5016512 790528 13899467 d416cb vmlinux.pre 8093205 5001600 790528 13885333 d3df95 vmlinux.post Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1486154544-4321-1-git-send-email-jbaron@akamai.com Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org> Cc: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: Jason Baron <jbaron@akamai.com> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
