From f67f8d4a8c1e1ebc85a6cbdb9a7266f14863461c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" Date: Fri, 1 Dec 2023 14:59:36 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] mm/rmap: fix misplaced parenthesis of a likely() Running my yearly branch profiler to see where likely/unlikely annotation may be added or removed, I discovered this: correct incorrect % Function File Line ------- --------- - -------- ---- ---- 0 457918 100 page_try_dup_anon_rmap rmap.h 264 [..] 458021 0 0 page_try_dup_anon_rmap rmap.h 265 I thought it was interesting that line 264 of rmap.h had a 100% incorrect annotation, but the line directly below it was 100% correct. Looking at the code: if (likely(!is_device_private_page(page) && unlikely(page_needs_cow_for_dma(vma, page)))) It didn't make sense. The "likely()" was around the entire if statement (not just the "!is_device_private_page(page)"), which also included the "unlikely()" portion of that if condition. If the unlikely portion is unlikely to be true, that would make the entire if condition unlikely to be true, so it made no sense at all to say the entire if condition is true. What is more likely to be likely is just the first part of the if statement before the && operation. It's likely to be a misplaced parenthesis. And after making the if condition broken into a likely() && unlikely(), both now appear to be correct!
