[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] tcg: optimise memory layout of TCGTemp


From: Emilio G. Cota
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] tcg: optimise memory layout of TCGTemp
Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2015 15:50:48 -0400

This brings down the size of the struct from 56 to 32 bytes on 64-bit,
and to 16 bytes on 32-bit.

The appended adds macros to prevent us from mistakenly overflowing
the bitfields when more elements are added to the corresponding
enums/macros.

Note that reg/mem_reg need only 6 bits (for ia64) but for performance
is probably better to align them to a byte address.

Given that TCGTemp is used in large arrays this leads to a few KBs
of savings. However, unpacking the bits takes additional code, so
the net effect depends on the target (host is x86_64):

Before:
$ find . -name 'tcg.o' | xargs size
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  41131   29800      88   71019   1156b ./aarch64-softmmu/tcg/tcg.o
  37969   29416      96   67481   10799 ./x86_64-linux-user/tcg/tcg.o
  39354   28816      96   68266   10aaa ./arm-linux-user/tcg/tcg.o
  40802   29096      88   69986   11162 ./arm-softmmu/tcg/tcg.o
  39417   29672      88   69177   10e39 ./x86_64-softmmu/tcg/tcg.o

After:
$ find . -name 'tcg.o' | xargs size
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  41187   29800      88   71075   115a3 ./aarch64-softmmu/tcg/tcg.o
  37777   29416      96   67289   106d9 ./x86_64-linux-user/tcg/tcg.o
  39162   28816      96   68074   109ea ./arm-linux-user/tcg/tcg.o
  40858   29096      88   70042   1119a ./arm-softmmu/tcg/tcg.o
  39473   29672      88   69233   10e71 ./x86_64-softmmu/tcg/tcg.o
