From 58b2eb1af562c292feb6d3cdce4656746e61da75 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreas Schultz Date: Mon, 15 Jul 2019 15:40:56 +0200 Subject: vlib: convert frame_index into real pointers The fast path almost always has to deal with the real pointers. Deriving the frame pointer from a frame_index requires a load of the 32bit frame_index from memory, another 64bit load of the heap base pointer and some calculations. Lets store the full pointer instead and do a single 64bit load only. This helps avoiding problems when the heap is grown and frames are allocated below vm->heap_aligned_base.
