We can reduce two members' size that in turn reduce size of struct btrfs_ref from 64 to 56 bytes. As the structure is often used as a local variable several functions reduce their stack usage. - make enum btrfs_ref_type packed, there are only 4 values - switch action and its values to a packed enum Final structure layout: struct btrfs_ref { enum btrfs_ref_type type; /* 0 1 */ enum btrfs_delayed_ref_action action; /* 1 1 */ bool skip_qgroup; /* 2 1 */ /* XXX 5 bytes hole, try to pack */ u64 bytenr; /* 8 8 */ u64 len; /* 16 8 */ u64 parent; /* 24 8 */ union { struct btrfs_data_ref data_ref; /* 32 24 */ struct btrfs_tree_ref tree_ref; /* 32 16 */ }; /* 32 24 */ /* size: 56, cachelines: 1, members: 7 */ /* sum members: 51, holes: 1, sum holes: 5 */ /* last cacheline: 56 bytes */ }; Reviewed-by: Qu Wenruo <wqu@suse.com> Signed-off-by: David Sterba <dsterba@suse.com>
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.
