From 85f59edf9684603026c64c902791748116d29478 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Thu, 31 Oct 2013 17:25:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] perf: Optimize perf_output_begin() There's no point in re-doing the memory-barrier when we fail the cmpxchg(). Also placing it after the space reservation loop makes it clearer it only separates the userpage->tail read from the data stores.
