So is any arm64 platform actually using these devices? If these devices are mostly used by 32bit x86 platforms, optimizing them for arm64 doesn't make any sense. Possibly the patches are still good for x86 also, but that needs to be proven.

It seems asm bit reversal is supported in Kernel on arm & arm64 only, not sure whether any other arch even provide asm bit reversal instruction. > These kind of optimizations should have some real world measurements, Not for this case, but once measured on ARM, iirc, a 32-bit asm bit reversal as compared to doing it in C was taking 1 cycle as opposed to ~225 cycles!, of course writing optimized C could have made it fare better, but still would reach no-way near asm bit reversal.

The above measurement was done not in Linux, rather on a baremetal code, but seeing the efficient Kernel C implementation, realized that the gain would not be that much, it would be good to know if there are measurements for Kernel bitreversal in C & asm (on supported arch) Regards afzal ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread
