There is a lot of overhead in functions like xfs_verify_agbno() that repeatedly calculate the geometry limits of an AG. These can be pre-calculated as they are static and the verification context has a per-ag context it can quickly reference. In the case of xfs_verify_agbno(), we now always have a perag context handy, so we can store the AG length and the minimum valid block in the AG in the perag. This means we don't have to calculate it on every call and it can be inlined in callers if we move it to xfs_ag.h. Move xfs_ag_block_count() to xfs_ag.c because it's really a per-ag function and not an XFS type function. We need a little bit of rework that is specific to xfs_initialise_perag() to allow growfs to calculate the new perag sizes before we've updated the primary superblock during the grow (chicken/egg situation). Note that we leave the original xfs_verify_agbno in place in xfs_types.c as a static function as other callers in that file do not have per-ag contexts so still need to go the long way. It's been renamed to xfs_verify_agno_agbno() to indicate it takes both an agno and an agbno to differentiate it from new function. Future commits will make similar changes for other per-ag geometry validation functions. Further: $ size --totals fs/xfs/built-in.a text data bss dec hex filename before 1483006 329588 572 1813166 1baaae (TOTALS) after 1482185 329588 572 1812345 1ba779 (TOTALS) This rework reduces the binary size by ~820 bytes, indicating that much less work is being done to bounds check the agbno values against on per-ag geometry information.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
