From 6b58e7f146f8d79c08f62087f928e1f01747de71 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ulrich Drepper Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2009 16:39:51 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] perf tools: Avoid unnecessary work in directory lookups This patch improves some (common) inefficiencies in the handling of directory lookups: - not using the d_type information returned by the kernel - constructing (absolute) paths for file operation even though directory-relative operations using the *at functions is possible There are more places to fix but this is a start.
