From b0f38338aef2dae5ade3c16acf713737e3b15a73 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Westphal Date: Sun, 3 Dec 2017 00:58:47 +0100 Subject: netfilter: reduce size of hook entry point locations struct net contains: struct nf_hook_entries __rcu *hooks[NFPROTO_NUMPROTO][NF_MAX_HOOKS]; which store the hook entry point locations for the various protocol families and the hooks. Using array results in compact c code when doing accesses, i.e. x = rcu_dereference(net->nf.hooks[pf][hook]); but its also wasting a lot of memory, as most families are not used. So split the array into those families that are used, which are only 5 (instead of 13). In most cases, the 'pf' argument is constant, i.e. gcc removes switch statement. struct net before: /* size: 5184, cachelines: 81, members: 46 */ after: /* size: 4672, cachelines: 73, members: 46 */ Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso --- include/net/netns/netfilter.h | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'include/net/netns') diff --git a/include/net/netns/netfilter.h b/include/net/netns/netfilter.h index cc00af2ac2d7..b39c563c2fce 100644 --- a/include/net/netns/netfilter.h +++ b/include/net/netns/netfilter.h @@ -17,7 +17,11 @@ struct netns_nf { #ifdef CONFIG_SYSCTL struct ctl_table_header *nf_log_dir_header; #endif - struct nf_hook_entries __rcu *hooks[NFPROTO_NUMPROTO][NF_MAX_HOOKS]; + struct nf_hook_entries __rcu *hooks_ipv4[NF_MAX_HOOKS]; + struct nf_hook_entries __rcu *hooks_ipv6[NF_MAX_HOOKS]; + struct nf_hook_entries __rcu *hooks_arp[NF_MAX_HOOKS]; + struct nf_hook_entries __rcu *hooks_bridge[NF_MAX_HOOKS]; + struct nf_hook_entries __rcu *hooks_decnet[NF_MAX_HOOKS]; #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NF_DEFRAG_IPV4) bool defrag_ipv4; #endif -- cgit v1.2.3-73-gaa49b
