Subject: [patch] 2.4.19 Generate better code for nfs_sillyrename
Date: Wed, 28 Aug 2002 17:07:20 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5810.1030518440@kao2.melbourne.sgi.com> (raw)

Using strlen() generates an unnecessary inline function expansion plus
dynamic stack adjustment.  For constant strings, strlen() == sizeof()-1
and the object code is better.  Patch against 2.4.19.
