struct proc_dir_entry became bit messy over years: * move 16-bit ->mode_t before namelen to get rid of padding * make ->in_use first field: it seems to be most used resulting in smaller code on x86_64 (defconfig): add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 7/13 up/down: 24/-67 (-43) Function old new delta proc_readdir_de 451 455 +4 proc_get_inode 282 286 +4 pde_put 65 69 +4 remove_proc_subtree 294 297 +3 remove_proc_entry 297 300 +3 proc_register 295 298 +3 proc_notify_change 94 97 +3 unuse_pde 27 26 -1 proc_reg_write 89 85 -4 proc_reg_unlocked_ioctl 85 81 -4 proc_reg_read 89 85 -4 proc_reg_llseek 87 83 -4 proc_reg_get_unmapped_area 123 119 -4 proc_entry_rundown 139 135 -4 proc_reg_poll 91 85 -6 proc_reg_mmap 79 73 -6 proc_get_link 55 49 -6 proc_reg_release 108 101 -7 proc_reg_open 298 291 -7 close_pdeo 228 218 -10 * move writeable fields together to a first cacheline (on x86_64), those include * ->in_use: reference count, taken every open/read/write/close etc * ->count: reference count, taken at readdir on every entry * ->pde_openers: tracks (nearly) every open, dirtied * ->pde_unload_lock: spinlock protecting ->pde_openers * ->proc_iops, ->proc_fops, ->data: writeonce fields, used right together with previous group. * other rarely written fields go into 1st/2nd and 2nd/3rd cacheline on 32-bit and 64-bit respectively. Additionally on 32-bit, ->subdir, ->subdir_node, ->namelen, ->name go fully into 2nd cacheline, separated from writeable fields. They are all used during lookup.
