[PATCH] KVM: Reorder fields in 'struct kvm_mmu_memory_cache'

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

 



Group some variables based on their sizes to reduce hole and avoid padding.
On x86_64, this shrinks the size from 40 to 32 bytes.

Before:
======
struct kvm_mmu_memory_cache {
	int                        nobjs;                /*     0     4 */
	gfp_t                      gfp_zero;             /*     4     4 */
	gfp_t                      gfp_custom;           /*     8     4 */

	/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

	struct kmem_cache *        kmem_cache;           /*    16     8 */
	int                        capacity;             /*    24     4 */

	/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

	void * *                   objects;              /*    32     8 */

	/* size: 40, cachelines: 1, members: 6 */
	/* sum members: 32, holes: 2, sum holes: 8 */
	/* last cacheline: 40 bytes */
};
