On ARM64, the pointer to task_struct is always available in the sp_el0 register and therefore the calls to bpf_get_current_task() and bpf_get_current_task_btf() can be inlined into a single MRS instruction. Here is the difference before and after this change: Before: ; struct task_struct *task = bpf_get_current_task_btf(); 54: mov x10, #0xffffffffffff7978 // #-34440 58: movk x10, #0x802b, lsl #16 5c: movk x10, #0x8000, lsl #32 60: blr x10 --------------> 0xffff8000802b7978 <+0>: mrs x0, sp_el0 64: add x7, x0, #0x0 <-------------- 0xffff8000802b797c <+4>: ret After: ; struct task_struct *task = bpf_get_current_task_btf(); 54: mrs x7, sp_el0 This shows around 1% performance improvement in artificial microbenchmark.
