Subject: socket: use percpu_add() while updating sockets_in_use
X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4e69489a0ac11a9b62a25923975bfc370a30eae5;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

socket: use percpu_add() while updating sockets_in_use

sock_alloc() currently uses following code to update sockets_in_use

get_cpu_var(sockets_in_use)++;
put_cpu_var(sockets_in_use);

This translates to :

c0436274:       b8 01 00 00 00          mov    $0x1,%eax
c0436279:       e8 42 40 df ff          call   c022a2c0 <add_preempt_count>
c043627e:       bb 20 4f 6a c0          mov    $0xc06a4f20,%ebx
c0436283:       e8 18 ca f0 ff          call   c0342ca0 <debug_smp_processor_id>
c0436288:       03 1c 85 60 4a 65 c0    add    -0x3f9ab5a0(,%eax,4),%ebx
c043628f:       ff 03                   incl   (%ebx)
c0436291:       b8 01 00 00 00          mov    $0x1,%eax
c0436296:       e8 75 3f df ff          call   c022a210 <sub_preempt_count>
c043629b:       89 e0                   mov    %esp,%eax
c043629d:       25 00 e0 ff ff          and    $0xffffe000,%eax
c04362a2:       f6 40 08 08             testb  $0x8,0x8(%eax)
c04362a6:       75 07                   jne    c04362af <sock_alloc+0x7f>
c04362a8:       8d 46 d8                lea    -0x28(%esi),%eax
c04362ab:       5b                      pop    %ebx
c04362ac:       5e                      pop    %esi
c04362ad:       c9                      leave
c04362ae:       c3                      ret
c04362af:       e8 cc 5d 09 00          call   c04cc080 <preempt_schedule>
c04362b4:       8d 74 26 00             lea    0x0(%esi,%eiz,1),%esi
c04362b8:       eb ee                   jmp    c04362a8 <sock_alloc+0x78>

While percpu_add(sockets_in_use, 1) translates to a single instruction :

c0436275:   64 83 05 20 5f 6a c0    addl   $0x1,%fs:0xc06a5f20
