>From df6bc28340e3cc2b4ebe132492971e8a4164fe11 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephan Baerwolf Date: Wed, 20 Jul 2011 14:46:59 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 2/3] sched: replace use of "entity_key()" "entity_key()" is only used in "__enqueue_entity()" and its only function is to subtract a tasks vruntime by its groups minvruntime. Before this patch a rbtree enqueue-decision is done by comparing two tasks in the style: "if (entity_key(cfs_rq, se) < entity_key(cfs_rq, entry))" which would be "if (se->vruntime-cfs_rq->min_vruntime < entry->vruntime-cfs_rq->min_vruntime)" or (if reducing cfs_rq->min_vruntime out) "if (se->vruntime < entry->vruntime)" which is "if (entity_before(se, entry))" So we do not need "entity_key()". If "entity_before()" is inline we will also save one subtraction (only one, because "entity_key(cfs_rq, se)" was cached in "key") Signed-off-by: Stephan Baerwolf --- kernel/sched_fair.c | 8 +------- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/kernel/sched_fair.c b/kernel/sched_fair.c index e092e72..66dc9f7 100644 --- a/kernel/sched_fair.c +++ b/kernel/sched_fair.c @@ -334,11 +334,6 @@ static inline int entity_before(struct sched_entity *a, return (s64)(a->vruntime - b->vruntime) < 0; } -static inline s64 entity_key(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, struct sched_entity *se) -{ - return se->vruntime - cfs_rq->min_vruntime; -} - static void update_min_vruntime(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq) { u64 vruntime = cfs_rq->min_vruntime; @@ -372,7 +367,6 @@ static void __enqueue_entity(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, struct sched_entity *se) struct rb_node **link = &cfs_rq->tasks_timeline.rb_node; struct rb_node *parent = NULL; struct sched_entity *entry; - s64 key = entity_key(cfs_rq, se); int leftmost = 1; /* @@ -385,7 +379,7 @@ static void __enqueue_entity(struct cfs_rq *cfs_rq, struct sched_entity *se) * We dont care about collisions.
