The following commit has been merged into the x86/asm branch of tip: Commit-ID: f444a5ff95dce07cf4353cbb85fc3e785019d430 Gitweb: https://git.kernel.org/tip/f444a5ff95dce07cf4353cbb85fc3e785019d430 Author: Tony Luck <tony.luck@xxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Mon, 16 Dec 2019 13:42:54 -08:00 Committer: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Wed, 08 Jan 2020 11:29:25 +01:00 x86/cpufeatures: Add support for fast short REP; MOVSB >From the Intel Optimization Reference Manual: 3.7.6.1 Fast Short REP MOVSB Beginning with processors based on Ice Lake Client microarchitecture, REP MOVSB performance of short operations is enhanced. The enhancement applies to string lengths between 1 and 128 bytes long. Support for fast-short REP MOVSB is enumerated by the CPUID feature flag: CPUID [EAX=7H, ECX=0H).EDX.FAST_SHORT_REP_MOVSB[bit 4] = 1. There is no change in the REP STOS performance. Add an X86_FEATURE_FSRM flag for this. memmove() avoids REP MOVSB for short (< 32 byte) copies. Check FSRM and use REP MOVSB for short copies on systems that support it.
