With large verifier speed improvement brought by the previous patch mark_reg_read() becomes the hottest function during verification. On a typical program it consumes 40% of cpu. mark_reg_read() walks parentage chain of registers to mark parents as LIVE_READ. Once the register is marked there is no need to remark it again in the future. Hence stop walking the chain once first LIVE_READ is seen. This optimization drops mark_reg_read() time from 40% of cpu to <1% and overall 2x improvement of verification speed. For some programs the longest_mark_read_walk counter improves from ~500 to ~5 Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Jakub Kicinski <jakub.kicinski@netronome.com> Reviewed-by: Edward Cree <ecree@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
