Subject: [PATCH 2/2] taskstats: use nla_reserve() for reply assembling
Currently taskstats_user_cmd()/taskstats_exit() do:
1) allocate stats
2) fill stats
3) make a temporary copy on stack (236 bytes)
4) copy that copy to skb
5) free stats
With the help of nla_reserve() we can operate on skb->data directly,
thus avoiding all these steps except 2).
So, before this patch:
// copy *stats to skb->data
int mk_reply(skb, ..., struct taskstats *stats);
fill_pid(stats);
mk_reply(skb, ..., stats);
After:
// return a pointer to skb->data
struct taskstats *mk_reply(skb, ...);
stat = mk_reply(skb, ...);
fill_pid(stats);
Shrinks taskatsks.o by 162 bytes.
A stupid benchmark (send one million TASKSTATS_CMD_ATTR_PID) shows the
difference,
real user sys
before:
4.02 0.06 3.96
4.02 0.04 3.98
4.02 0.04 3.97
after:
3.86 0.08 3.78
3.88 0.10 3.77
3.89 0.09 3.80
but this looks suspiciously good.
