In most cases we do not care about exact number of buffers linked to the header, we just need to know if it is zero, non-zero or one. That can easily be checked just looking on b_buf pointer or in some cases derefencing it.

b_ebufcnt is read only once, and in that case we already traverse the list as part of arc_buf_remove(), so second traverse should not be expensive.

This reduces L1 ARC header size by 8 bytes and full crypto header by 16 bytes, down to 176 and 232 bytes on FreeBSD respectively.

Types of changes

  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • Performance enhancement (non-breaking change which improves efficiency)
  • Code cleanup (non-breaking change which makes code smaller or more readable)
  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change)
  • Library ABI change (libzfs, libzfs_core, libnvpair, libuutil and libzfsbootenv)
  • Documentation (a change to man pages or other documentation)

I was able to save additional 8 bytes on removing also b_ebufcnt.
