[PATCH] tty: shrink the size of struct tty_struct by 40 bytes

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

 



It's been a long time since anyone has looked at what struct tty_struct
looks like in memory, turns out there was a ton of holes.

So move things around a bit, change one variable (closing) from being an
int to a bool (it is only being tested for 0/1), and we end up saving 40
bytes per structure overall on x86-64 systems.

Before this patch:
	/* size: 696, cachelines: 11, members: 37 */
	/* sum members: 665, holes: 8, sum holes: 31 */
	/* forced alignments: 2, forced holes: 1, sum forced holes: 4 */
	/* last cacheline: 56 bytes */

After this change:
	/* size: 656, cachelines: 11, members: 37 */
	/* sum members: 654, holes: 1, sum holes: 2 */
	/* forced alignments: 2 */
	/* last cacheline: 16 bytes */
