Subject: [PATCH] trace-cmd: Adjust host_trace_info structure to be better packed
Date: Thu, 5 Mar 2020 12:46:55 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200305124655.0738a585@gandalf.local.home> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200304091220.30936-8-tz.stoyanov@gmail.com>


From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Move the unsigned long long trace_id out from between the boolean
sync_enable and the int ts_samples_count, which removes the gap in the
structure, making the structure size drop from 32 bytes to 24, as displayed
by pahole.

Before:

struct host_trace_info {
        _Bool                      sync_enable;          /*     0     1 */

        /* XXX 7 bytes hole, try to pack */

        long long unsigned int     trace_id;             /*     8     8 */
        int                        ts_samples_count;     /*    16     4 */

        /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

        struct ts_offset_sample * ts_samples;            /*    24     8 */

        /* size: 32, cachelines: 1, members: 4 */
        /* sum members: 21, holes: 2, sum holes: 11 */
        /* last cacheline: 32 bytes */
};

After:

struct host_trace_info {
        long long unsigned int     trace_id;             /*     0     8 */
        _Bool                      sync_enable;          /*     8     1 */

        /* XXX 3 bytes hole, try to pack */

        int                        ts_samples_count;     /*    12     4 */
        struct ts_offset_sample * ts_samples;            /*    16     8 */

        /* size: 24, cachelines: 1, members: 4 */
        /* sum members: 21, holes: 1, sum holes: 3 */
        /* last cacheline: 24 bytes */
};

This is why I'm picky on ordering of fields in data structures.
I'm sure there's many more places we can update here.
