[PATCH] kernel: Shrink embedded kernel, remove WARN strings when !CONFIG_PRINTK

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



WARN strings are currently always saved in text.
When printk is not enabled, this wastes space.

Don't call or compile slowpath_warn_<foo> when !CONFIG_PRINTK.

This makes an embedded image without printk support ~1% smaller.

x86-32 allnoconfig/embedded:

$ size vmlinux.new vmlinux.old
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
1180807	 182720	1269372	2632899	 282cc3	vmlinux.new
1198760	 182720	1267948	2649428	 286d54	vmlinux.old
