Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/4] net: macb: Consolidate MACB_CAPS_ISR_CLEAR_ON_WRITE checks in IRQ handler
Date: Sat, 28 Mar 2026 18:17:46 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260328-macb-irq-v1-2-7b3e622fb46c@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260328-macb-irq-v1-0-7b3e622fb46c@gmail.com>
Currently, the MACB_CAPS_ISR_CLEAR_ON_WRITE flag is checked in every
branch of the IRQ handler. This repeated evaluation is unnecessary.
By consolidating the flag check, we eliminate redundant loads of
bp->caps when TX and RX events occur simultaneously, a common scenario
under high network throughput. Additionally, this optimization reduces
the function size from 0x2e8 to 0x2c4.
