[PATCH v3 10/50] perf callchain: Minor layout changes to callchain_list

From: Ian Rogers
Date: Tue Oct 24 2023 - 18:25:14 EST


Avoid 6 byte hole for padding. Place more frequently used fields
first in an attempt to use just 1 cacheline in the common case.

Before:
```
struct callchain_list {
u64 ip; /* 0 8 */
struct map_symbol ms; /* 8 24 */
struct {
_Bool unfolded; /* 32 1 */
_Bool has_children; /* 33 1 */
}; /* 32 2 */

/* XXX 6 bytes hole, try to pack */

u64 branch_count; /* 40 8 */
u64 from_count; /* 48 8 */
u64 predicted_count; /* 56 8 */
/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
u64 abort_count; /* 64 8 */
u64 cycles_count; /* 72 8 */
u64 iter_count; /* 80 8 */
u64 iter_cycles; /* 88 8 */
struct branch_type_stat * brtype_stat; /* 96 8 */
const char * srcline; /* 104 8 */
struct list_head list; /* 112 16 */

/* size: 128, cachelines: 2, members: 13 */
/* sum members: 122, holes: 1, sum holes: 6 */
};
```

After:
```
struct callchain_list {
struct list_head list; /* 0 16 */
u64 ip; /* 16 8 */
struct map_symbol ms; /* 24 24 */
const char * srcline; /* 48 8 */
u64 branch_count; /* 56 8 */
/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
u64 from_count; /* 64 8 */
u64 cycles_count; /* 72 8 */
u64 iter_count; /* 80 8 */
u64 iter_cycles; /* 88 8 */
struct branch_type_stat * brtype_stat; /* 96 8 */
u64 predicted_count; /* 104 8 */
u64 abort_count; /* 112 8 */
struct {
_Bool unfolded; /* 120 1 */
_Bool has_children; /* 121 1 */
}; /* 120 2 */

/* size: 128, cachelines: 2, members: 13 */
/* padding: 6 */
};
```
