[PATCH] livepatch: Move the result-invariant calculation out of the loop

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

 



The calculation results of the variables 'func_addr' and 'func_size' are
not affected by the for loop and do not change due to the changes of
entries[i]. The performance can be improved by moving it outside the loop.

No functional change.
