x86: drop -funroll-loops for csum_partial_64.c

2008-09-04T15:42:06Z

Impact: performance optimization I did some rebenchmarking with modern compilers and dropping -funroll-loops makes the function consistently go faster by a few percent. So drop that flag. Thanks to Richard Guenther for a hint. Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin

ftrace: trace irq disabled critical timings

2008-05-23T18:32:46Z

This patch adds latency tracing for critical timings (how long interrupts are disabled for). "irqsoff" is added to /debugfs/tracing/available_tracers Note: tracing_max_latency also holds the max latency for irqsoff (in usecs). (default to large number so one must start latency tracing) tracing_thresh threshold (in usecs) to always print out if irqs off is detected to be longer than stated here. If irq_thresh is non-zero, then max_irq_latency is ignored.

x86, UML: remove x86-specific implementations of find_first_bit

2008-04-26T17:21:17Z

x86 has been switched to the generic versions of find_first_bit and find_first_zero_bit, but the original versions were retained. This patch just removes the now unused x86-specific versions. also update UML. Signed-off-by: Alexander van Heukelum Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

x86: change x86 to use generic find_next_bit

2008-04-26T17:21:16Z

The versions with inline assembly are in fact slower on the machines I tested them on (in userspace) (Athlon XP 2800+, p4-like Xeon 2.8GHz, AMD Opteron 270). The i386-version needed a fix similar to 06024f21 to avoid crashing the benchmark. Benchmark using: gcc -fomit-frame-pointer -Os. For each bitmap size 1...512, for each possible bitmap with one bit set, for each possible offset: find the position of the first bit starting at offset. If you follow ;). Times include setup of the bitmap and checking of the results. Athlon Xeon Opteron 32/64bit x86-specific: 0m3.692s 0m2.820s 0m3.196s / 0m2.480s generic: 0m2.622s 0m1.662s 0m2.100s / 0m1.572s If the bitmap size is not a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG, and no set (cleared) bit is found, find_next_bit (find_next_zero_bit) returns a value outside of the range [0, size]. The generic version always returns exactly size. The generic version also uses unsigned long everywhere, while the x86 versions use a mishmash of int, unsigned (int), long and unsigned long. Using the generic version does give a slightly bigger kernel, though. defconfig: text data bss dec hex filename x86-specific: 4738555 481232 626688 5846475 5935cb vmlinux (32 bit) generic: 4738621 481232 626688 5846541 59360d vmlinux (32 bit) x86-specific: 5392395 846568 724424 6963387 6a40bb vmlinux (64 bit) generic: 5392458 846568 724424 6963450 6a40fa vmlinux (64 bit) Signed-off-by: Alexander van Heukelum Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar

x86: unify arch/x86/lib/Makefile(s)

2008-01-30T12:32:31Z

Trivial unification of Makefiles for the x86 specific library part. Linking order is slightly modified but should be harmless. Tested doing a defconfig build before and after and saw no build changes. It adds almost as many lines as it deletes - bacause I broke a few lines up fo readability in the Makefile.
