[INET6]: Reorganize struct inet6_dev to save 8 bytes
And make it a multiple of a 64 bytes, reducing cacheline trashing: Before: [acme@doppio net-2.6]$ pahole -C inet6_dev net/dccp/ipv6.o struct inet6_dev { <SNIP> long unsigned int mc_maxdelay; /* 48 8 */ unsigned char mc_qrv; /* 56 1 */ unsigned char mc_gq_running; /* 57 1 */ unsigned char mc_ifc_count; /* 58 1 */ /* XXX 5 bytes hole, try to pack */ /* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */ struct timer_list mc_gq_timer; /* 64 48 */ <SNIP> __u32 if_flags; /* 180 4 */ int dead; /* 184 4 */ u8 rndid[8]; /* 188 8 */ /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */ /* --- cacheline 3 boundary (192 bytes) was 8 bytes ago --- */ struct timer_list regen_timer; /* 200 48 */ <SNIP> /* size: 456, cachelines: 8 */ /* sum members: 447, holes: 2, sum holes: 9 */ /* last cacheline: 8 bytes */ }; After: net-2.6/net/ipv6/af_inet6.c: struct inet6_dev | -8 1 struct changed Signed-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
