Date: Tue, 18 Jun 2019 00:20:34 +0200 From: Rasmus Villemoes <linux@...musvillemoes.dk> To: Ingo Molnar <mingo@...nel.org>, Andrew Morton <akpm@...ux-foundation.org> Cc: Jason Baron <jbaron@...mai.com>, Nathan Chancellor <natechancellor@...il.com>, Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@...gle.com>, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, Rasmus Villemoes <linux@...musvillemoes.dk> Subject: [PATCH v6 8/8] x86-64: select HAVE_DYNAMIC_DEBUG_RELATIVE_POINTERS This allows reducing the size of struct _ddebug from 56 to 40 bytes. There's one such struct for each pr_debug(), netdev_debug() etc. in a CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG kernel. An Ubuntu 4.15 kernel has about 2550 entries in the __verbose section of vmlinux, amounting to ~40K saved. (Modules also become smaller, but it's harder to quantify how much that yields at runtime.) For comparison, the __bug_table section of that Ubuntu kernel is 75576 bytes, i.e. 6298 12-byte bug_entrys, so GENERIC_BUG_RELATIVE_POINTERS saves ~50K. Due to the build-time sanity checks in asm-generic/dynamic_debug.h, we need to add another #undef to vclock_gettime.c.
