Subject: [net-next PATCH v2 7/8] fib_trie: Update last spot w/ idx >> n->bits code and explanation
Date: Wed, 04 Mar 2015 15:04:03 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150304230250.1612.81387.stgit@ahduyck-vm-fedora20> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150304225459.1612.45514.stgit@ahduyck-vm-fedora20>

This change updates the fib_table_lookup function so that it is in sync
with the fib_find_node function in terms of the explanation for the index
check based on the bits value.

I have also updated it from doing a mask to just doing a compare as I have
found that seems to provide more options to the compiler as I have seen it
turn this into a shift of the value and test under some circumstances.

In addition I addressed one minor issue in which we kept computing the key
^ n->key when checking the fib aliases.  I pulled the xor out of the loop
in order to reduce the number of memory reads in the lookup.  As a result
we should save a couple cycles since the xor is only done once much earlier
in the lookup.
