the flowi* structures are used and memsetted by server functions
in critical path. Currently flowi_common has a couple of holes that
we can eliminate reordering the struct fields. As a side effect,
both flowi4 and flowi6 shrink by 8 bytes.
Before:
pahole -EC flowi_common
struct flowi_common {
// ...
/* size: 40, cachelines: 1, members: 10 */
/* sum members: 32, holes: 1, sum holes: 4 */
/* padding: 4 */
/* last cacheline: 40 bytes */
};
pahole -EC flowi6
struct flowi6 {
// ...
/* size: 88, cachelines: 2, members: 6 */
/* padding: 4 */
/* last cacheline: 24 bytes */
};
pahole -EC flowi4
struct flowi4 {
// ...
/* size: 56, cachelines: 1, members: 4 */
/* padding: 4 */
/* last cacheline: 56 bytes */
};
After:
struct flowi_common {
// ...
/* size: 32, cachelines: 1, members: 10 */
/* last cacheline: 32 bytes */
};
struct flowi6 {
// ...
/* size: 80, cachelines: 2, members: 6 */
/* padding: 4 */
/* last cacheline: 16 bytes */
};
struct flowi4 {
// ...
/* size: 48, cachelines: 1, members: 4 */
/* padding: 4 */
/* last cacheline: 48 bytes */
};
