sched/idle: Micro-optimize the idle loop
Move the loop-invariant calculation of 'cpu' in do_idle() out of the loop body, because the current CPU is always constant. This improves the generated code both on x86-64 and ARM64: x86-64: Before patch (execution in loop): 864: 0f ae e8 lfence 867: 65 8b 05 c2 38 f1 7e mov %gs:0x7ef138c2(%rip),%eax 86e: 89 c0 mov %eax,%eax 870: 48 0f a3 05 68 19 08 bt %rax,0x1081968(%rip) 877: 01 After patch (execution in loop): 872: 0f ae e8 lfence 875: 4c 0f a3 25 63 19 08 bt %r12,0x1081963(%rip) 87c: 01 ARM64: Before patch (execution in loop): c58: d5033d9f dsb ld c5c: d538d080 mrs x0, tpidr_el1 c60: b8606a61 ldr w1, [x19,x0] c64: 1100fc20 add w0, w1, #0x3f c68: 7100003f cmp w1, #0x0 c6c: 1a81b000 csel w0, w0, w1, lt c70: 13067c00 asr w0, w0, #6 c74: 93407c00 sxtw x0, w0 c78: f8607a80 ldr x0, [x20,x0,lsl #3] c7c: 9ac12401 lsr x1, x0, x1 c80: 36000581 tbz w1, #0, d30 <do_idle+0x128> After patch (execution in loop): c84: d5033d9f dsb ld c88: f9400260 ldr x0, [x19] c8c: ea14001f tst x0, x20 c90: 54000580 b.eq d40 <do_idle+0x138> Signed-off-by: Cheng Jian <cj.chengjian@huawei.com> [ Rewrote the title and the changelog. ] Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: huawei.libin@huawei.com Cc: xiexiuqi@huawei.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1508930907-107755-1-git-send-email-cj.chengjian@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
