mainlining shenanigans
fde59ab161
Due to retpolines, indirect calls are much more expensive than direct
calls. The filters have a select set of functions it uses for the
predicates. Instead of using function pointers to call them, create a
filter_pred_fn_call() function that uses a switch statement to call the
predicate functions directly. This gives almost a 10% speedup to the
filter logic.
Using the histogram benchmark:
Before:
# event histogram
#
# trigger info: hist:keys=delta:vals=hitcount:sort=delta:size=2048 if delta > 0 [active]
#
{ delta: 113 } hitcount: 272

The peak before was 126ns per event, after the peak is 114ns, and the
fastest time went from 113ns to 103ns.

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.
