[RFC PATCH 0/2] Improve m68k __mulsi3

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As part of some other work I was doing looking at constant multiplies
on various platforms, and that led to looking a the em68k __mulsi3 code.

Which in turn led to the following microoptimizations.  Note that this
is desk-checked but UNTESTED, thus the RFC nature of the patches.

A bit of cleverness uses the available A0 and A1 registers to
save three instruction words one memory fetch, shaving 16 cycles
off the code.
