[PATCH 1/2] powerpc: Add 64bit optimised memcmp

2015-01-08 Thread Anton Blanchard
I noticed ksm spending quite a lot of time in memcmp on a large KVM box. The current memcmp loop is very unoptimised - byte at a time compares with no loop unrolling. We can do much much better. Optimise the loop in a few ways: - Unroll the byte at a time loop - For large (at least 32 byte) comp

How to make use of SPE instructions?

2015-01-08 Thread Markus Stockhausen
Hello, I developed a SHA224/256 kernel crypto module with SPE instructions. The result looks quite promising (~ +50% speedup). Nevertheless the flooding of kernel messages "SPE used in kernel" makes me feel uncomfortable. My findings so far: - I can configure the kernel with "SPE support". - a
