From 78d79423179c0efc7ec34b55d287e7be4ca07da6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Fri, 20 Oct 2006 00:28:35 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [IPV4] inet_peer: Group together avl_left, avl_right, v4daddr to speedup lookups on some CPUS Lot of routers/embedded devices still use CPUS with 16/32 bytes cache lines. (486, Pentium, ... PIII) It makes sense to group together fields used at lookup time so they fit in one cache line. This reduce cache footprint and speedup lookups.
