platform: add index for links by ifname

System Internals / NetworkManager - Thomas Haller [redhat.com] - 17 December 2015 11:42 UTC

Downsides:

- Add some additional overhead to manage the index

- The NMPCacheId struct grows to 16 bytes, affecting hashing performance for all object types.

Still do it, based on the assumption that it doesn't matter for a low number of interfaces. But the O(1) access time matters when having lots of interfaces.
