In timer_64.c tick functions are access via pointer (tick_ops), every time clock is read, there is one extra load to get to the function. This patch optimizes it, by accessing functions pointer from value. Current ched_clock(): sethi %hi(0xb9b400), %g1 ldx [ %g1 + 0x250 ], %g1 ! <tick_ops> ldx [ %g1 ], %g1 call %g1 nop sethi %hi(0xb9b400), %g1 ldx [ %g1 + 0x300 ], %g1 ! <timer_ticks_per_nsec_quotient> mulx %o0, %g1, %g1 rett %i7 + 8 srlx %g1, 0xa, %o0 New sched_clock(): sethi %hi(0xb9b400), %g1 ldx [ %g1 + 0x340 ], %g1 call %g1 nop sethi %hi(0xb9b400), %g1 ldx [ %g1 + 0x378 ], %g1 mulx %o0, %g1, %g1 rett %i7 + 8 srlx %g1, 0xa, %o0 Before three loads, now two loads.
