powerpc/fadump: rename cpu_online_mask member of struct fadump_crash_info_header
The four cpumasks cpu_{possible,online,present,active}_bits are exposed readonly via the corresponding const variables cpu_xyz_mask. But they are also accessible for arbitrary writing via the exposed functions set_cpu_xyz. There's quite a bit of code throughout the kernel which iterates over or otherwise accesses these bitmaps, and having the access go via the cpu_xyz_mask variables is nowadays [1] simply a useless indirection. It may be that any problem in CS can be solved by an extra level of indirection, but that doesn't mean every extra indirection solves a problem. In this case, it even necessitates some minor ugliness (see 4/6). Patch 1/6 is new in v2, and fixes a build failure on ppc by renaming a struct member, to avoid problems when the identifier cpu_online_mask becomes a macro later in the series. The next four patches eliminate the cpu_xyz_mask variables by simply exposing the actual bitmaps, after renaming them to discourage direct access - that still happens through cpu_xyz_mask, which are now simply macros with the same type and value as they used to have. After that, there's no longer any reason to have the setter functions be out-of-line: The boolean parameter is almost always a literal true or false, so by making them static inlines they will usually compile to one or two instructions. For a defconfig build on x86_64, bloat-o-meter says we save ~3000 bytes. We also save a little stack (stackdelta says 127 functions have a 16 byte smaller stack frame, while two grow by that amount). Mostly because, when iterating over the mask, gcc typically loads the value of cpu_xyz_mask into a callee-saved register and from there into %rdi before each find_next_bit call - now it can just load the appropriate immediate address into %rdi before each call. [1] See Rusty's kind explanation http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/2047078/focus=2047722 for some historic context. This patch (of 6): As preparation for eliminating the indirect access to the various global cpu_*_bits bitmaps via the pointer variables cpu_*_mask, rename the cpu_online_mask member of struct fadump_crash_info_header to simply online_mask, thus allowing cpu_online_mask to become a macro.
