Subject: [PATCH net-next] mptcp: Reorder fields in 'struct mptcp_pm_add_entry'
Date: Sun, 18 Jun 2023 11:46:46 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <e47b71de54fd3e580544be56fc1bb2985c77b0f4.1687081558.git.christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> (raw)

Group some variables based on their sizes to reduce hole and avoid padding.
On x86_64, this shrinks the size of 'struct mptcp_pm_add_entry'
from 136 to 128 bytes.

It saves a few bytes of memory and is more cache-line friendly.

Using pahole

Before:
======
struct mptcp_pm_add_entry {
	struct list_head           list;                 /*     0    16 */
	struct mptcp_addr_info     addr;                 /*    16    12 */

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

	struct timer_list          add_timer;            /*    32    88 */
	/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) was 56 bytes ago --- */
	struct mptcp_sock *        sock;                 /*   120     8 */
	/* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */
	u8                         retrans_times;        /*   128     1 */

	/* size: 136, cachelines: 3, members: 5 */
	/* sum members: 125, holes: 1, sum holes: 4 */
	/* padding: 7 */
	/* last cacheline: 8 bytes */
};


After:
=====
struct mptcp_pm_add_entry {
	struct list_head           list;                 /*     0    16 */
	struct mptcp_addr_info     addr;                 /*    16    12 */
	u8                         retrans_times;        /*    28     1 */

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

	struct timer_list          add_timer;            /*    32    88 */
	/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) was 56 bytes ago --- */
	struct mptcp_sock *        sock;                 /*   120     8 */

	/* size: 128, cachelines: 2, members: 5 */
	/* sum members: 125, holes: 1, sum holes: 3 */
};
