[PATCH net-next] wifi: wcn36xx: Slightly optimize PREPARE_HAL_BUF()

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

 



In most (likely all) cases, INIT_HAL_MSG() is called before
PREPARE_HAL_BUF().
In such cases calling memset() is useless because:
   msg_body.header.len = sizeof(msg_body)

So, instead of writing twice the memory, we just have a sanity check to
make sure that some potential trailing memory is zeroed.
It even gives the opportunity to see that by itself and optimize it away.
