[PATCH 2/2] MIPS: enable GENERIC_FIND_FIRST_BIT

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

 



From: Alexander Lobakin <alobakin@xxxxx>

MIPS doesn't have architecture-optimized bitsearching functions,
like find_{first,next}_bit() etc.
It's absolutely harmless to enable GENERIC_FIND_FIRST_BIT as this
functionality is not new at all and well-tested. It provides more
optimized code and saves some .text memory (32 R2):

add/remove: 4/1 grow/shrink: 1/53 up/down: 216/-372 (-156)

Users of for_each_set_bit() like hotpath gic_handle_shared_int()
will also benefit from this.
