Trade text size for rodata size and replace tons of nested if-elses to the const mask match based structs. The almost entire ice_find_dummy_packet() now becomes just one plain while-increment loop. The order in ice_dummy_pkt_profiles[] should be same with the if-elses order previously, as masks become less and less strict through the array to follow the original code flow. Apart from removing 80 locs of 4-level if-elses, it brings a solid text size optimization: add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 1/1 up/down: 2/-1058 (-1056) Function old new delta ice_fill_adv_dummy_packet 289 291 +2 ice_adv_add_update_vsi_list 201 - -201 ice_add_adv_rule 2950 2093 -857 Total: Before=414512, After=413456, chg -0.25% add/remove: 53/52 grow/shrink: 0/0 up/down: 4660/-3988 (672) RO Data old new delta ice_dummy_pkt_profiles - 672 +672 Total: Before=37895, After=38567, chg +1.77% Signed-off-by: Alexander Lobakin <alexandr.lobakin@intel.com> Reviewed-by: Michal Swiatkowski <michal.swiatkowski@linux.intel.com> Tested-by: Marcin Szycik <marcin.szycik@linux.intel.com> Tested-by: Sandeep Penigalapati <sandeep.penigalapati@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@intel.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.
