Subject: [PATCH 0/2] udevd: Optimize "goto"
Date: Sun, 28 Sep 2008 11:00:29 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <48DF63CD.6070507@tuffmail.co.uk> (raw)

I seem to remember you mentioned this as a longer-term goal.  This was
in the context of the TODO item "rework rules to a match-action list,
instead of a rules array".

The idea was to move the scan for the label targeted by a goto rule
(udev_rules_iter_label), from run-time to parse-time.  It avoids
repeating the scan for every event.

I already had a patch for this specific idea.  I think it can be
implemented now without causing problems.  It's no big win - cachegrind
suggests it takes 5% off user cpu time - but it is progress.
