From 83b7b44e1c1e9e493ccd4146558481ab5af0116a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 6 Dec 2006 20:38:53 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] fs: reorder some 'struct inode' fields to speedup i_size manipulations On 32bits SMP platforms, 64bits i_size is protected by a seqcount (i_size_seqcount). When i_size is read or written, i_size_seqcount is read/written as well, so it make sense to group these two fields together in the same cache line. This patch moves i_size_seqcount next to i_size, and also moves i_version to let offsetof(struct inode, i_size) being 0x40 instead of 0x3c (for 32bits platforms). For 64 bits platforms, i_size_seqcount doesnt exist, and the move of a 'long i_version' should not introduce a new hole because of padding.
