The patch titled Subject: fs/proc/array.c: optimize render_sigset_t() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was proc-optimize-render_sigset_t.patch This patch was dropped because it was withdrawn ------------------------------------------------------ From: Andrei Vagin <avagin@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: fs/proc/array.c: optimize render_sigset_t() render_sigset_t() requires about 30% of time to generate /proc/pid/status. - 74.44% sys_read - 74.40% vfs_read - 74.01% __vfs_read - 73.36% seq_read - 72.97% proc_single_show - 72.26% proc_pid_status + 29.79% render_sigset_t + 11.47% task_mem + 5.60% render_cap_t + 4.95% seq_printf + 4.28% cpuset_task_status_allowed seq_printf is called for each symbol of a signal mask. This patch collect a whole mask in a buffer and prints it for one call of seq_puts(). - 65.02% proc_single_show - 63.75% proc_pid_status + 15.73% task_mem + 7.42% render_sigset_t + 7.39% render_cap_t + 6.46% cpuset_task_status_allowed /proc/pid/status is generated 25% faster with this optimization.
