    filter: optimize sk_run_filter · 93aaae2e
    Eric Dumazet 提交于
    Remove pc variable to avoid arithmetic to compute fentry at each filter
    instruction. Jumps directly manipulate fentry pointer.
    
    As the last instruction of filter[] is guaranteed to be a RETURN, and
    all jumps are before the last instruction, we dont need to check filter
    bounds (number of instructions in filter array) at each iteration, so we
    remove it from sk_run_filter() params.
    
    On x86_32 remove f_k var introduced in commit 57fe93b3
    (filter: make sure filters dont read uninitialized memory)
    
    Note : We could use a CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_{FEW|MANY}_REGISTERS in order to
    avoid too many ifdefs in this code.
    
    This helps compiler to use cpu registers to hold fentry and A
    accumulator.
    
    On x86_32, this saves 401 bytes, and more important, sk_run_filter()
    runs much faster because less register pressure (One less conditional
    branch per BPF instruction)
