Subject: [PATCH v4 next 0/9] Implement mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup()
Date: Wed, 29 Oct 2025 17:38:19 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251029173828.3682-1-david.laight.linux@gmail.com> (raw)

The pwm-stm32.c code wants a 'rounding up' version of mul_u64_u64_div_u64().
This can be done simply by adding 'divisor - 1' to the 128bit product.
Implement mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64(a, b, c, d) = (a * b + c)/d based on the
existing code.
Define mul_u64_u64_div_u64(a, b, d) as mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64(a, b, 0, d) and
mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup(a, b, d) as mul_u64_add_u64_div_u64(a, b, d-1, d).

Only x86-64 has an optimsed (asm) version of the function.
That is optimised to avoid the 'add c' when c is known to be zero.
In all other cases the extra code will be noise compared to the software
divide code.

The test module has been updated to test mul_u64_u64_div_u64_roundup() and
also enhanced it to verify the C division code on x86-64 and the 32bit
division code on 64bit.

Changes for v2:
- Rename the 'divisor' parameter from 'c' to 'd'.
- Add an extra patch to use BUG_ON() to trap zero divisors.
- Remove the last patch that ran the C code on x86-64
  (I've a plan to do that differently).

Changes for v3:
- Replace the BUG_ON() (or panic in the original version) for zero
  divisors with a WARN_ONCE() and return zero.
- Remove the 'pre-multiply' check for small products.
  Completely non-trivial on 32bit systems.
- Use mul_u32_u32() and the new add_u64_u32() to stop gcc generating
  pretty much pessimal code for x86 with lots of register spills.
- Replace the 'bit at a time' divide with one that generates 16 bits
  per iteration on 32bit systems and 32 bits per iteration on 64bit.
  Massively faster, the tests run in under 1/3 the time.

Changes for v4:
No significant code changes.
- Rebase on 6.18-rc2
- Don't change the behaviour for overflow (return ~0ull) or divide
  by zero (execute ~0ul/0).
- Merge patches 8 and 9 to avoid bisection issues.
- Fix build of 32bit test cases on non-x86.
- Fix shell script that verifies test cases.

I've left the x86-64 faulting on both overflow and divide by zero.
The patch to add an execption table entry to return ~0 for both
doesn't seem to have been merged.
If merged it would make sense for the C version to return ~0 for both.
Callers can check for a result of ~0 and then check the divisor if
they care about overflow (etc).
(A valid quotent of ~0 is pretty unlikely and marginal changes to the
input values are likely to generate a real overflow.)
The code that faulted on overflow was about to get invalid results
because one of the 64bit inputs would itself wrap very soon.
