procfs: add seq_put_hex_ll to speed up /proc/pid/maps
seq_put_hex_ll() prints a number in hexadecimal notation and works faster than seq_printf(). == test.py num = 0 with open("/proc/1/maps") as f: while num < 10000 : data = f.read() f.seek(0, 0) num = num + 1 == == Before patch == $ time python test.py real 0m1.561s user 0m0.257s sys 0m1.302s == After patch == $ time python test.py real 0m0.986s user 0m0.279s sys 0m0.707s $ perf -g record python test.py: == Before patch == - 67.42% 2.82% python [kernel.kallsyms] [k] show_map_vma.isra.22 - 64.60% show_map_vma.isra.22 - 44.98% seq_printf - seq_vprintf - vsnprintf + 14.85% number + 12.22% format_decode 5.56% memcpy_erms + 15.06% seq_path + 4.42% seq_pad + 2.45% __GI___libc_read == After patch == - 47.35% 3.38% python [kernel.kallsyms] [k] show_map_vma.isra.23 - 43.97% show_map_vma.isra.23 + 20.84% seq_path - 15.73% show_vma_header_prefix 10.55% seq_put_hex_ll + 2.65% seq_put_decimal_ull 0.95% seq_putc + 6.96% seq_pad + 2.94% __GI___libc_read [avagin@openvz.org: use unsigned int instead of int where it is suitable] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180214025619.4005-1-avagin@openvz.org [avagin@openvz.org: v2] Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180117082050.25406-1-avagin@openvz.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180112185812.7710-1-avagin@openvz.orgSigned-off-by: Andrei Vagin <avagin@openvz.org> Cc: Alexey Dobriyan <adobriyan@gmail.com> Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
