Subject: [PATCH 2/2] radix-tree: Fix optimisation problem
Date: Thu, 22 Sep 2016 11:53:35 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1474570415-14938-3-git-send-email-mawilcox@linuxonhyperv.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1474570415-14938-1-git-send-email-mawilcox@linuxonhyperv.com>
From: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@microsoft.com>
When compiling the radix tree with -O2, GCC thinks it can optimise:
void *entry = parent->slots[offset];
int siboff = entry - parent->slots;
void *slot = parent->slots + siboff;
into
void *slot = entry;
Unfortunately, 'entry' is a tagged pointer, so this optimisation leads
to getting an unaligned pointer back from radix_tree_lookup_slot().
The test suite wasn't being compiled with optimisation, so we hadn't
spotted it before now. Change the test suite to compile with -O2, and
fix the optimisation problem by passing 'entry' through entry_to_node()
so gcc knows this isn't a plain pointer.
