[PATCH] signal.c: avoid repeated disable/enable interrupt

Added by normalperson (Eric Wong) about 10 years ago. Updated over 9 years ago.

Status:
Closed
Assignee:
-
Target version:
[ruby-core:59480]

Description

We only install system-level signal handlers during init (before any
threads or user code is running), so there's no need to repeatedly
enable/disable the interrupts at that time. We also do not change
system-level sig handlers once user-level code is running.

This saves about 20 syscalls at startup and makes the executable
smaller:

signal.c: avoid repeated disable/enable interrupt

We only install system-level signal handlers during init (before any
threads or user code is running), so there's no need to repeatedly
enable/disable the interrupts at that time. We also do not change
system-level sig handlers once user-level code is running.

This saves about 20 syscalls at startup and makes the executable
smaller (numbers from 32-bit x86):

    text       data     bss     dec     hex filename

before: 2815726 12100 30552 2858378 2b9d8a ruby
after: 2815022 12100 30552 2857674 2b9aca ruby

  • signal.c (install_sighandler): remove rb_disable_interrupt and
    rb_enable_interrupt calls
    (init_sigchld): ditto
    (Init_signal): disable and enable interrupt once around all
    install_sighandler and init_sigchld to reduce syscalls at start
