Subject: [PATCH 2/3] mm, page_poison: use static key more efficiently
Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2020 18:33:57 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201026173358.14704-3-vbabka@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201026173358.14704-1-vbabka@suse.cz>

Commit 11c9c7edae06 ("mm/page_poison.c: replace bool variable with static key")
changed page_poisoning_enabled() to a static key check. However, the function
is not inlined, so each check still involves a function call with overhead not
eliminated when page poisoning is disabled.

Analogically to how debug_pagealloc is handled, this patch converts
page_poisoning_enabled() back to boolean check, and introduces
page_poisoning_enabled_static() for fast paths. Both functions are inlined.

Also optimize the check that enables page poisoning instead of debug_pagealloc
for architectures without proper debug_pagealloc support. Move the check to
init_mem_debugging() to enable a single static key instead of having two
static branches in page_poisoning_enabled_static().
