Subject: [PATCH] readahead: call scheme - fix fastcall readahead_cache_hit()
Date: Sun, 4 Jun 2006 20:13:28 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <349423197.27188@ustc.edu.cn> (raw)
Message-ID: <20060604121328.GA6686@mail.ustc.edu.cn> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060604020738.31f43cb0.akpm@osdl.org>
Remove 'fastcall' directive for readahead_cache_hit().
Sorry, it also leads to unfavorable performance in the following micro
benchmark on i386 with CONFIG_REGPARM=n:
Command:
time cp cold /dev/null
Summary:
user sys cpu total
no-fastcall 1.24 24.88 90.9 28.57
fastcall 1.16 25.69 91.5 29.23
Details:
without fastcall:
cp cold /dev/null 1.27s user 24.63s system 91% cpu 28.348 total
cp cold /dev/null 1.17s user 25.09s system 91% cpu 28.653 total
cp cold /dev/null 1.24s user 24.75s system 91% cpu 28.448 total
cp cold /dev/null 1.20s user 25.04s system 91% cpu 28.614 total
cp cold /dev/null 1.31s user 24.67s system 91% cpu 28.499 total
cp cold /dev/null 1.30s user 24.87s system 91% cpu 28.530 total
cp cold /dev/null 1.26s user 24.84s system 91% cpu 28.542 total
cp cold /dev/null 1.16s user 25.15s system 90% cpu 28.925 total
with fastcall:
cp cold /dev/null 1.16s user 26.39s system 91% cpu 30.061 total
cp cold /dev/null 1.25s user 26.53s system 91% cpu 30.378 total

cp cold /dev/null 1.19s user 25.38s system 92% cpu 28.841 total
cp cold /dev/null 1.11s user 25.75s system 92% cpu 29.126 total
cp cold /dev/null 1.17s user 25.49s system 91% cpu 29.042 total
cp cold /dev/null 1.17s user 25.49s system 92% cpu 28.970 total
