[PATCH] mm/slab.c: micro-optimization spare one branch in main flow

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

 



From: Mateusz Nosek <mateusznosek0@xxxxxxxxx>

By small refactoring two 'unlikely' branches are changed so that if
not one of them is true then only one branch occurs in 'likely' path
of the function in question. Change verified in assembly generated
by gcc 8.3.0.
