From: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: include/linux/uaccess.h: remove expensive WARN_ON in pagefault_disabled_dec pagefault_disabled_dec is frequently used inline, and it has a WARN_ON for underflow that expands to about 6.5k of extra code. The warning doesn't seem to be that useful and worth so much code so remove it. If it was needed could make it depending on some debug kernel option. Saves ~6.5k in my kernel text data bss dec hex filename 9039417 5367568 11116544 25523529 1857549 vmlinux-before-pf 9032805 5367568 11116544 25516917 1855b75 vmlinux-pf Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170315021431.13107-8-andi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- include/linux/uaccess.h | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-) diff -puN include/linux/uaccess.h~remove-expensive-warn_on-in-pagefault_disabled_dec include/linux/uaccess.h --- a/include/linux/uaccess.h~remove-expensive-warn_on-in-pagefault_disabled_dec +++ a/include/linux/uaccess.h @@ -203,7 +203,6 @@ static __always_inline void pagefault_di static __always_inline void pagefault_disabled_dec(void) { current->pagefault_disabled--; - WARN_ON(current->pagefault_disabled < 0); } /* _ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe mm-commits" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
