This is a function pointer the compiler cannot see through. Hence it's an indirect function call. But the implementation is always a simple yes/no (it seems). Indirect calls are rather expensive (most of the time they cannot be predicted right). Why not instead have a read-only data constants and have an inline function test that value? It means no function call and only one data access. Also, you're inconsistent in the use of integers and true/false in the implementations of this function. Either use 0/1 or false/true. - -- ➧ Ulrich Drepper ➧ Red Hat, Inc. ➧ 444 Castro St ➧ Mountain View, CA ❖ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkowv08ACgkQ2ijCOnn/RHR71ACdH3xr3XPnCLgsMMwdTawfehEN vs4An2DlErhU6SeanSYVIyP3eLB4sjsz =UZ32 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
