From 168b6b1d0594c7866caa73b12f3b8d91075695f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Mon, 11 May 2009 22:11:05 -0400 Subject: ring-buffer: move code around to remove some branches This is a bit of micro-optimizations. But since the ring buffer is used in tracing every function call, it is an extreme hot path. Every nanosecond counts. This change shows over 5% improvement in the ring-buffer-benchmark.
