This is the patch backed ported from 2.6 kernel. However, I got
# modprobe xor
raid5: measuring checksumming speed
ia64 : 81.920 MB/sec
The old one I got
# modprobe xor
raid5: measuring checksumming speed
8regs : 1769.472 MB/sec
8regs_prefetch: 1753.088 MB/sec
32regs : 2064.384 MB/sec
32regs_prefetch: 2064.384 MB/sec
ia64 : 2441.216 MB/sec
raid5: using function: ia64 (2441.216 MB/sec)
It is very strange.

measures?

With 2.6.0-test2, I got
raid5: measuring checksumming speed
ia64 : 98.304 MB/sec
raid5: using function: ia64 (98.304 MB/sec)
It looks like a separate asm file hurt the number very badly.

I can't reproduce this. With 2.6.0-test2 on a zx6000, I get:
raid5: measuring checksumming speed
ia64 : 2080.768 MB/sec
raid5: using function: ia64 (2080.768 MB/sec)

Mine is bigsur. I will try old 2.4.2x kernel to see what number I
will get. It may be just that bigsur has very poor performance on
xor.

I have verified that removing the separate xor boosts the performance
