| |
Compilers like to transform loops like
for (i = 0; i < n; i++) { [use p[i]] }
into for (p = p0; p < end; p++) { ... }
Do it by hand, so that it results in overall simpler loop and smaller code.
Space savings:
$ ./scripts/bloat-o-meter ../vmlinux-001 ../obj/vmlinux add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 2/1 up/down: 4/-9 (-5) Function old new delta proc_tid_base_lookup 17 19 +2 proc_tgid_base_lookup 17 19 +2 proc_pident_lookup 179 170 -9
Note: this trick bloats readdir, so don't do it :-\
