After switch arm64 to Generic Entry, the compiler no longer inlines el0_svc_common() into do_el0_svc(). So inline el0_svc_common() and it has 1% performance uplift on perf bench basic syscall on kunpeng920 as below which is based on v6.19-rc1. | Metric | W/O this patch | With this patch | Change | | ---------- | -------------- | --------------- | --------- | | Total time | 2.195 [sec] | 2.171 [sec] | ↓1.1% | | usecs/op | 0.219575 | 0.217192 | ↓1.1% | | ops/sec | 4,554,260 | 4,604,225 | ↑1.1% | Reviewed-by: Kevin Brodsky <kevin.brodsky@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Jinjie Ruan <ruanjinjie@huawei.com> --- arch/arm64/kernel/syscall.c | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/arm64/kernel/syscall.c b/arch/arm64/kernel/syscall.c index 77d00a5cf0e9..6fcd97c46716 100644 --- a/arch/arm64/kernel/syscall.c +++ b/arch/arm64/kernel/syscall.c @@ -66,8 +66,8 @@ static void invoke_syscall(struct pt_regs *regs, unsigned int scno, choose_random_kstack_offset(get_random_u16()); } -static void el0_svc_common(struct pt_regs *regs, int scno, int sc_nr, - const syscall_fn_t syscall_table[]) +static __always_inline void el0_svc_common(struct pt_regs *regs, int scno, int sc_nr, + const syscall_fn_t syscall_table[]) { unsigned long work = READ_ONCE(current_thread_info()->syscall_work); unsigned long flags = read_thread_flags(); -- 2.34.1
