Even with this fix, you cannot build with a separate object directory.

Ack, this works for me (seeing as -rc4 doesn't generate uImages w/o it =

Seen it now as it is in Linus tree:

1) IMHO it would have been nicer to use #ifdef __KERNEL__
   instead of CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
   as then arches that don't define CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
   at all will never use the new optimization or was that what you intended?

2) You really should add an comment in the Makefile about not using
   autoconf.h/-D__KERNEL__

No, that was on purpose. If an arch doesn't have efficient unaligned
accesses, then they should not use the optimization since it will result
in a lot of unaligned accesses :-) In which case they are better off
falling back to the old byte-by-byte method.

The advantage also of doing it this way is that x86 will benefit from
the optimisation at boot time since it does include autoconf.h in its
boot wrapper (and deals with unaligned accesses just fine at any time)
though something tells me that it won't make much of a difference in
performances on any recent x86 (it might on some of the newer low power
embedded ones, I don't know for sure).

That's true :-)

Cheers,
Ben.

Not quite, it is only 1 of 4 accesses that uses unaligned and
that accesses is only unaligned 50% in average, it might still
be faster. We will never know now.

But so does my suggestion, doesn't it?

Why ? If you think it's a win, then it's easy to make a patch to turn
it to __KERNEL__ and ask some people from ARM and MIPS or even sparc
land for example to give it a spin. If it's indeed a win, then submit it
to Linus and/or Andrew and there's no reason for it not to go in.

I simply took a more conservative approach for post -rc4

Cheers,
Ben.

Perhaps for the best this late. I will just leave it as is. If ARM/MIPS et. all
wants, they can test it whenever they want.

It would probably be a good idea to redefine UP_UNALIGNED macro to
do 2 byte accesses in the non CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS case.

I don't think I will revisit this any time soon so I figured I should
mention it in case someone else wants to try it.

Well, get_unaligned() does just that...

So I fixed the new inflate to be endian independent and now
all arches can use the optimized version. Here goes:

Subject: [PATCH] zlib: Make new optimized inflate endian independent

Commit 6846ee5ca68d81e6baccf0d56221d7a00c1be18b made the
new optimized inflate only available on arch's that
define CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS. This
fixes it by defining our own endian independent versions
of unaligned access.

(I hope I picked up the right version of
whatever-it-was-i-was-supposed-to-pick-up - I wasn't paying attention).

The changelog sucks.  You say the patch fixes "it", but what is "it"? 
Is "it" a build error?  If so, what?  Or is "it" a
make-optimized-inflate-available-on-ppc patch, in which case it's a
"feature"?

Confuzzzzzed.

It was the right one.

Here is a new version with a somewhat better commit msg and
checkpatch fixes.

BTW, I get duplicate mails from your patch handling tools,

Subject: [PATCH] zlib: Make new optimized inflate endian independent

Commit 6846ee5ca68d81e6baccf0d56221d7a00c1be18b made the
new optimized inflate only available on arch's that
define CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS. This
will again enable the optimization for all arch's by
by defining our own endian independent version
of unaligned access. As an added bonus, arch's that
define CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS do a
plain load instead.

Given that we're at -rc5, that changelog says to me "this is a 2.6.34
patch".

If that is wrong, please tell me why.
