[PATCH] net: deinline netif_tx_stop_all_queues(), remove WARN_ON in netif_tx_stop_queue()

From: Denys Vlasenko
Date: Mon May 11 2015 - 15:18:04 EST


These functions compile to 60 bytes of machine code each.
With this .config: http://busybox.net/~vda/kernel_config
there are 617 calls of netif_tx_stop_queue()
and 49 calls of netif_tx_stop_all_queues() in vmlinux.

To fix this, remove WARN_ON in netif_tx_stop_queue()
as suggested by davem, and deinline netif_tx_stop_all_queues().

Change in code size is about 20k:

text data bss dec hex filename
82426986 22255416 20627456 125309858 77813a2 vmlinux.before
82406248 22255416 20627456 125289120 777c2a0 vmlinux

gcc-4.7.2 still creates deinlined version of netif_tx_stop_queue
sometimes:

$ nm --size-sort vmlinux | grep netif_tx_stop_queue | wc -l
190

ffffffff81b558a8 <netif_tx_stop_queue>:
ffffffff81b558a8: 55 push %rbp
ffffffff81b558a9: 48 89 e5 mov %rsp,%rbp
ffffffff81b558ac: f0 80 8f e0 01 00 00 lock orb $0x1,0x1e0(%rdi)
ffffffff81b558b3: 01
ffffffff81b558b4: 5d pop %rbp
ffffffff81b558b5: c3 retq

This needs additional fixing.
