flush_dcache_page() is only a few lines, it is worth inlining. ia64, csky, mips, openrisc and riscv have a similar flush_dcache_page() and inline it. On pmac32_defconfig, we get a small size reduction. On ppc64_defconfig, we get a very small size increase. In both case that's in the noise (less than 0.1%). text data bss dec hex filename 18991155 5934744 1497624 26423523 19330e3 vmlinux64.before 18994829 5936732 1497624 26429185 1934701 vmlinux64.after 9150963 2467502 184548 11803013 b41985 vmlinux32.before 9149689 2467302 184548 11801539 b413c3 vmlinux32.after Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/21c417488b70b7629dae316539fb7bb8bdef4fdd.1617895813.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu
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.
