Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/2] Optimization with AVX2 instruction
Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2015 16:54:11 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1440752053-16961-1-git-send-email-liang.z.li@intel.com> (raw)

The buffer_find_nonzero_offset() will be called to check the zero page
during live migration, it's a hot function. buffer_find_nonzero_offset()
has already been optimized with SSE2 instructions, for platform that
supports AVX2, we can optimize this function with AVX2 instructions and
achieve about 25% performance gain.

Liang Li (2):
  cutils: add the AVX2 optimization
  configure: add --enable-avx2 option
