In the loop of mvneta_tx_done_gbe(), we call the smp_processor_id() each time, move the call out of the loop to optimize the code a bit. Before the patch, the loop looks like(under arm64): ldr x1, [x29,#120] ... ldr w24, [x1,#36] ... bl 0 <_raw_spin_lock> str w24, [x27,#132] ... After the patch, the loop looks like(under arm64): ... bl 0 <_raw_spin_lock> str w23, [x28,#132] ... where w23 is loaded so be ready before the loop. >From another side, mvneta_tx_done_gbe() is called from mvneta_poll() which is in non-preemptible context, so it's safe to call the smp_processor_id() function once.

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. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
