Most hardware architectures require that data (including struct fields) have to be aligned in memory. To make it happen compiler inserts padding between struct fields if they are not aligned correctly. Reorder fields to remove paddings and make structures denser. Making data smaller saves some memory that is very important for trace events. Tracing buffer has limited size and making objects smaller we can put more of them without overflowing the tracing buffer. To find data struct holes I used 'pahole -H 1 -E -I vmlinux.o' from 'dwarves' package. Signed-off-by: Anatol Pomozov <anatol.pomozov@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> |
