I have this patch based on your master at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/kernel/kexec/kexec-tools.git.
The problem could be the settings of my new mail client.

I'll add the comment and try a re-post.

Thanks.

This patch doesn't seem to apply against the master branch.
I'm wondering if you or Geoff could:

1. Rebase the patch
2. Include some text about the performance improvement.
   Something like what is above would be fine from my pov.

It takes around 20 second to verify SHA in purgatory when vmlinuz
image is around 13MB and initramfs is around 30M with -O2 enables.
Otherwise, it takes more than 2 minutes.

Could you give an indication of the performance improvement you expect,
e.g. on arm64?

[PATCH] purgatory: Change default sha256 optimization to -O2

2016-11-23 Thread Geoff Levand

Change the default purgatory sha256 code optimization from -O0 to -O2, and add a
new arch specific makefile variable $(ARCH)_PURGATORY_SHA256_CFLAGS which can
over ride this default.  Set ia64_PURGATORY_SHA256_CFLAGS to -O0 to retain the
previous optimization level for ia64.

The purgatory sha256 code needs the be built with -O0 for the  ia64
architecture.  Currently this code is built with -O0 for all architectures,
which slows down the calculations for architectures which could otherwise
use -O2.
