Use smaller scan_control fields for order, priority, and reclaim_idx.
Convert fields from int => s8. All easily fit within a byte:
- allocation order range: 0..MAX_ORDER(64?)
- priority range: 0..12(DEF_PRIORITY)
- reclaim_idx range: 0..6(__MAX_NR_ZONES)
Since 6538b8ea886e ("x86_64: expand kernel stack to 16K") x86_64 stack
overflows are not an issue. But it's inefficient to use ints.
Use s8 (signed byte) rather than u8 to allow for loops like:
do {
...
} while (--sc.priority >= 0);
Add BUILD_BUG_ON to verify that s8 is capable of storing max values.
This reduces sizeof(struct scan_control):
- 96 => 80 bytes (x86_64)
- 68 => 56 bytes (i386)
scan_control structure field order is changed to utilize padding. After
this patch there is 1 bit of scan_control padding.
akpm: makes my vmscan.o's .text 572 bytes smaller as well.
