Subject: [PATCH,resent] reduce sizeof(struct inet_peer) from 128 to 64 bytes on 64bits architectures
Date: Thu, 17 Mar 2005 00:38:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4238C388.5040303@cosmosbay.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 303 bytes --]

Resent with diff file not tab/space mangled :(

As peer_cachep uses kmem_cache_create("inet_peer_cache", ... SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN ...),
better try to use exactly 64 bytes instead of 72 for struct inet_peer.

This also means that this structure fits in one cache line on x86_64.


Thank you
Eric Dumazet
