Because tot_len is signed in tcp_v6_send_ack(), tot_len/4 forces compiler
to emit an integer divide, while we can help it to use a right shift,
less expensive.
Are you really sure?
At least, gcc-4.1.2-20061115 (debian) does not make any difference.
And, IMHO, because shift for signed variable is fragile, so we should
avoid using it.
Yes I am sure, but maybe you are on x86_64 ?
gcc-4.2.2 on x86
I'm on gcc-4.1.2 20061115 (prerelease) (Debian 4.1.1-21), on x86 (i686).
Maybe compiler difference?!
hum, more probably a .config difference. Try with
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=Y
(default config)
