These functions compile to ~60 bytes of machine code each. With this .config: http://busybox.net/~vda/kernel_config there are 617 calls to netif_tx_stop_queue() and 49 calls to netif_tx_stop_all_queues() in vmlinux. Code size is reduced by 27 kbytes: text data bss dec hex filename 82426986 22255416 20627456 125309858 77813a2 vmlinux.before 82399481 22255416 20627456 125282353 777a831 vmlinux It may seem strange that a seemingly simple code like one in netif_tx_stop_queue() compiles to ~60 bytes of code. Well, it's true.
