I agree the difference is not huge, I added this patch mainly for code
readability. If you prefer I can drop the patch, I do not have a strong
opinion about it. What do you think?
net-next:
struct airoha_queue {
struct airoha_qdma * qdma; /* 0 8 */
spinlock_t lock; /* 8 4 */
/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */
struct airoha_queue_entry * entry; /* 16 8 */
struct airoha_qdma_desc * desc; /* 24 8 */
u16 head; /* 32 2 */
u16 tail; /* 34 2 */
int queued; /* 36 4 */
int ndesc; /* 40 4 */
int free_thr; /* 44 4 */
int buf_size; /* 48 4 */
/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */
struct napi_struct napi __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); /* 56 496 */
/* XXX last struct has 1 hole */
/* --- cacheline 8 boundary (512 bytes) was 40 bytes ago --- */
struct page_pool * page_pool; /* 552 8 */
struct sk_buff * skb; /* 560 8 */
/* size: 568, cachelines: 9, members: 13 */
/* sum members: 560, holes: 2, sum holes: 8 */
/* member types with holes: 1, total: 1 */
/* forced alignments: 1, forced holes: 1, sum forced holes: 4 */
/* last cacheline: 56 bytes */
} __attribute__((__aligned__(8)));
net-next + airoha_queue reorg:
struct airoha_queue {
struct airoha_qdma * qdma; /* 0 8 */
spinlock_t lock; /* 8 4 */
/* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */

int queued; /* 32 4 */
int ndesc; /* 36 4 */
struct napi_struct napi __attribute__((__aligned__(8))); /* 40 496 */
/* XXX last struct has 1 hole */
/* --- cacheline 8 boundary (512 bytes) was 24 bytes ago --- */
union {
struct {
u16 head; /* 536 2 */
u16 tail; /* 538 2 */
int buf_size; /* 540 4 */
struct page_pool * page_pool; /* 544 8 */
struct sk_buff * skb; /* 552 8 */
}; /* 536 24 */
struct {
struct list_head tx_list; /* 536 16 */
int free_thr; /* 552 4 */

}; /* 536 24 */
/* size: 560, cachelines: 9, members: 8 */
