Subject: [patch 2/3] ipc: use shifts to extract seq/idx
Date: Thu, 20 May 2010 17:00:04 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100520070004.GH2516@laptop> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100520065911.GG2516@laptop>


All the ipc ids and sequences are signed integers, so power of 2
sequence multiplier does not work so well. Convert it to use shifts,
which improves generated code particularly in ipc_lock/ipc_lock_check
fast paths.
