Well, I thought current practice was not using inline for such trivial functions,
as gcc already inlines them anyway.
Quoting Documentation/CodingStyle :
Often people argue that adding inline to functions that are static and used
only once is always a win since there is no space tradeoff. While this is
technically correct, gcc is capable of inlining these automatically without
help, and the maintenance issue of removing the inline when a second user
appears outweighs the potential value of the hint that tells gcc to do
something it would have done anyway.
Anyway :
[PATCH] poll: Avoid extra wakeups in select/poll
After introduction of keyed wakeups Davide Libenzi did on epoll, we
are able to avoid spurious wakeups in poll()/select() code too.
For example, typical use of poll()/select() is to wait for incoming
network frames on many sockets. But TX completion for UDP/TCP
frames call sock_wfree() which in turn schedules thread.
When scheduled, thread does a full scan of all polled fds and
can sleep again, because nothing is really available. If number
of fds is large, this cause significant load.
This patch makes select()/poll() aware of keyed wakeups and
useless wakeups are avoided. This reduces number of context
switches by about 50% on some setups, and work performed
by sofirq handlers.
