For now, module relocation functions are implemented as an array of handlers of type reloc_handler_t. Convert that array into a single switch-case function to: - remove unused arguments; - change the return type of simple handlers to void; - remove the array and don't use any data at all; - avoid using indirect calls; - allow the compiler to inline and greatly optimize the relocation function[s]. The result on MIPS32 R2 with GCC 10.2 -O2 is: scripts/bloat-o-meter -c arch/mips/kernel/__module.o arch/mips/kernel/module.o add/remove: 1/11 grow/shrink: 1/0 up/down: 876/-1436 (-560) Function old new delta apply_relocate 456 1148 +692 apply_r_mips_pc - 184 +184 apply_r_mips_none 8 - -8 apply_r_mips_32 16 - -16 apply_r_mips_64 76 - -76 apply_r_mips_highest 88 - -88 apply_r_mips_higher 108 - -108 apply_r_mips_26 132 - -132 apply_r_mips_pc26 160 - -160 apply_r_mips_pc21 160 - -160 apply_r_mips_pc16 160 - -160 apply_r_mips_hi16 172 - -172 apply_r_mips_lo16 356 - -356 Total: Before=2608, After=2048, chg -21.47% add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/0 up/down: 0/0 (0) Data old new delta Total: Before=12, After=12, chg +0.00% add/remove: 0/1 grow/shrink: 0/0 up/down: 0/-248 (-248) RO Data old new delta reloc_handlers 248 - -248 Total: Before=248, After=0, chg -100.00% All functions were collapsed into a single one that is called directly by $(srctree)/kernel/module.c.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
