mm: mm_struct: remove 16 bytes of alignment padding on 64 bit builds
Reorder mm_struct to remove 16 bytes of alignment padding on 64 bit builds. On my config this shrinks mm_struct by enough to fit in one fewer cache lines and allows more objects per slab in mm_struct kmem_cache under SLUB. slabinfo before patch :- Sizes (bytes) Slabs -------------------------------- Object : 848 Total : 9 SlabObj: 896 Full : 2 SlabSiz: 16384 Partial: 5 Loss : 48 CpuSlab: 2 Align : 64 Objects: 18 slabinfo after :- Sizes (bytes) Slabs -------------------------------- Object : 832 Total : 7 SlabObj: 832 Full : 2 SlabSiz: 16384 Partial: 3 Loss : 0 CpuSlab: 2 Align : 64 Objects: 19 Signed-off-by: Richard Kennedy <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]>
