From 2bd2d6f2dc952fc44fc52887de36e51896da96b9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephan Baerwolf Date: Wed, 20 Jul 2011 14:46:59 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] sched: Replace use of entity_key() "entity_key()" is only used in "__enqueue_entity()" and its only function is to subtract a tasks vruntime by its groups minvruntime. Before this patch a rbtree enqueue-decision is done by comparing two tasks in the style: "if (entity_key(cfs_rq, se) < entity_key(cfs_rq, entry))" which would be "if (se->vruntime-cfs_rq->min_vruntime < entry->vruntime-cfs_rq->min_vruntime)" or (if reducing cfs_rq->min_vruntime out) "if (se->vruntime < entry->vruntime)" which is "if (entity_before(se, entry))" So we do not need "entity_key()". If "entity_before()" is inline we will also save one subtraction (only one, because "entity_key(cfs_rq, se)" was cached in "key") Signed-off-by: Stephan Baerwolf Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-ns12mnd2h5w8rb9agd8hnsfk@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- Reading git-format-patch failed
