Subject: [PATCH] mm: optimize the implementation of WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP()
Date: Mon,  9 Mar 2026 23:38:11 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260309153811.40958-1-qq570070308@gmail.com> (raw)

As shown in the commit message of commit 242b872239f6a7deacbc
("include/linux/once_lite.h: fix judgment in WARN_ONCE with clang"),
the code "unlikely(a && b)" may generate poor assembly code if it is
actually "unlikely(a) && unlikely(b)" or "unlikely(a) && b".

WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP() may be used in the hot path code:
1. The argument cond shoud be unlikely.
2. When "1." is true, !(gfp & __GFP_NOWARN) is unlikely, otherwise, a
   WARN may be triggered, which is a very unlikely case.
3. When "1. && 2." is true, just like the implementation of WARN_ONCE(),
   !__warned can be unlikely.

Reorder __ret_warn_once judgement to first and split out the unlikely()
in WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP() to optimize performance.
