They cannot really get paralleled executed.

Dependency is only an issue to a certain degree. 1st one it has things like "movl%edi, %edx; rorl$11, %edx" which is also a flow dependency. CPU solves flow dependency to a very large degree with register forwarding. Write dependencies are also dealt with register renaming if we save registers, register renaming will also save time.

"I really wonder why gcc # [being armed with inline assembler] fails to generate as fast code." # sha256/512_block procedure for x86_64. # # 40% improvement over compiler-generated code on Opteron. On EM64T # sha256 was observed to run >80% faster and sha512 - >40%. No magical # tricks, just straight implementation... I really wonder why gcc # [being armed with inline assembler] fails to generate as fast code. # The only thing which is cool about this module is that it's very # same instruction sequence used for both SHA-256 and SHA-512. In # former case the instructions operate on 32-bit operands, while in # latter - on 64-bit ones. All I had to do is to get one flavor right, # the other one passed the test right away:-)

If GCC wastes registers, tons of time would waste on stack push/load. My implementation by GCC on x86_64 is slower than openssl's asm version particularly due to this reason. GCC just pushes/stores too many values on the stack. https://github.com/openssl/openssl/blob/master/crypto/sha/asm/sha512-x86_64.pl#L192 OpenSSL does exactly what I do here.

Plus your example might be slower due to dependencies. Without a full example of where gcc ra goes wrong, gcc actually produces much better code for this example due to register renaming in hw. Note many x86_64 also does register renaming for the stack too
