Re: [PATCH] lib: add weak __clzsi2()/__clzdi2() functions

No, the link errors are for __ctzdi2, not __clzdi2.
__ctzdi2 can be implemented using __ffs().
How's about we stop using __builtin_ctz[ll]() altogether?  Use N-fls()?

That was my first suggestion ;-)

Do we remove existing __builtin_ct[l]z?
Some architecture's __builtin_clz will be more optimized than N-fls
IMHO, This is not only about __builtin- but also supporting another
libgcc functions in kernel.
Some future user may need __clz[t]s[d]i2 symbol also.

btw, this:

int __weak __clzsi2(int val)
{
       return BITS_PER_LONG - fls(val);
}

looks wrong.  It will give a different result for 32- and 64-bit.

Indeed. It should be hardcoded 32.

I will re-work this for 64-bit, and ctz also.

Thanks
