[PATCH 00/15] Remove callback indirections in compression code

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The series removes all per-compression algorithm callbacks and replaces
them with a switches. Lots of indirections are simplified and while it
looks nice from design POV, we don't need to over-engineer it as we have
only fixed known number of the users and not public API.

The cost of indirect function calls is also higher with enabled
mitigations of the spectre vulnerability, so they've been incrementally
removed from the whole kernel and from btrfs as well.

David Sterba (15):
  btrfs: export compression and decompression callbacks
  btrfs: switch compression callbacks to direct calls
  btrfs: compression: attach workspace manager to the ops
  btrfs: compression: let workspace manager init take only the type
  btrfs: compression: inline init_workspace_manager
  btrfs: compression: let workspace manager cleanup take only the type
  btrfs: compression: inline cleanup_workspace_manager
  btrfs: compression: export alloc/free/get/put callbacks of all algos
  btrfs: compression: inline get_workspace
  btrfs: compression: inline put_workspace
  btrfs: compression: pass type to btrfs_get_workspace
  btrfs: compression: inline alloc_workspace
  btrfs: compression: pass type to btrfs_put_workspace
  btrfs: compression: inline free_workspace
  btrfs: compression: remove ops pointer from workspace_manager
