As struct file_operations is really big, but (most) debugfs files only use simple_open, read, write and perhaps seek, and don't need anything else, this wastes a lot of space for NULL pointers. Add a struct debugfs_short_fops and some bookkeeping code in debugfs so that users can use that with debugfs_create_file() using _Generic to figure out which function to use. Converting mac80211 to use it where possible saves quite a bit of space: 1010127 205064 1220 1216411 128f9b net/mac80211/mac80211.ko (before) 981199 205064 1220 1187483 121e9b net/mac80211/mac80211.ko (after) ------- -28928 = ~28KiB With a marginal space cost in debugfs: 8701 550 16 9267 2433 fs/debugfs/inode.o (before) 25233 325 32 25590 63f6 fs/debugfs/file.o (before) 8914 558 16 9488 2510 fs/debugfs/inode.o (after) 25380 325 32 25737 6489 fs/debugfs/file.o (after) --------------- +360 +8 (All on x86-64) A simple spatch suggests there are more than 300 instances, not even counting the ones hidden in macros like in mac80211, that could be trivially converted, for additional savings of about 240 bytes for each.
