The patch titled Subject: slab, slub, slob: convert slab_flags_t to 32-bit has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is slab-slub-slob-convert-slab_flags_t-to-32-bit.patch This patch should soon appear at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmots/broken-out/slab-slub-slob-convert-slab_flags_t-to-32-bit.patch and later at http://ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/slab-slub-slob-convert-slab_flags_t-to-32-bit.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next and is updated there every 3-4 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: slab, slub, slob: convert slab_flags_t to 32-bit struct kmem_cache::flags is "unsigned long" which is unnecessary on 64-bit as no flags are defined in the higher bits. Switch the field to 32-bit and save some space on x86_64 until such flags appear: add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/107 up/down: 0/-657 (-657) function old new delta sysfs_slab_add 720 719 -1 ... check_object 699 676 -23 Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20171021100635.GA8287@avx2 Signed-off-by: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@xxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Pekka Enberg <penberg@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Christoph Lameter <cl@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: David Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- include/linux/slab.h | 44 ++++++++++++++++++++-------------------- include/linux/types.h | 2 - mm/slab.c | 4 +-- mm/slub.c | 4 +-- 4 files changed, 27 insertions(+), 27 deletions(-) diff -puN include/linux/slab.h~slab-slub-slob-convert-slab_flags_t-to-32-bit include/linux/slab.h --- a/include/linux/slab.h~slab-slub-slob-convert-slab_flags_t-to-32-bit +++ a/include/linux/slab.h @@ -22,19 +22,19 @@ * The ones marked DEBUG are only valid if CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB is set. */ /* DEBUG: Perform (expensive) checks on alloc/free */ -#define SLAB_CONSISTENCY_CHECKS ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00000100UL) +#define SLAB_CONSISTENCY_CHECKS ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00000100U) /* DEBUG: Red zone objs in a cache */ -#define SLAB_RED_ZONE ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00000400UL) +#define SLAB_RED_ZONE ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00000400U) /* DEBUG: Poison objects */ -#define SLAB_POISON ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00000800UL) +#define SLAB_POISON ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00000800U) /* Align objs on cache lines */ -#define SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00002000UL) +#define SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00002000U) /* Use GFP_DMA memory */ -#define SLAB_CACHE_DMA ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00004000UL) +#define SLAB_CACHE_DMA ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00004000U) /* DEBUG: Store the last owner for bug hunting */ -#define SLAB_STORE_USER ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00010000UL) +#define SLAB_STORE_USER ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00010000U) /* Panic if kmem_cache_create() fails */ -#define SLAB_PANIC ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00040000UL) +#define SLAB_PANIC ((slab_flags_t __force)0x00040000U) /* * SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU - **WARNING** READ THIS!
