Subject: [PATCH v2] crypto: arm64/aes-modes - get rid of literal load of addend vector
Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2018 17:48:45 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180823164845.20055-1-ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> (raw)

Replace the literal load of the addend vector with a sequence that
performs each add individually. This sequence is only 2 instructions
longer than the original, and 2% faster on Cortex-A53.

This is an improvement by itself, but also works around a Clang issue,
whose integrated assembler does not implement the GNU ARM asm syntax
completely, and does not support the =literal notation for FP registers
(more info at https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38642)

v2: replace convoluted code involving a SIMD add to increment four BE counters
    at once with individual add/rev/mov instructions
