lib: add fast path for find_next_*_bit()
Similarly to bitmap functions, find_next_*_bit() users will benefit
if we'll handle a case of bitmaps that fit into a single word. In the
very best case, the compiler may replace a function call with a few
instructions.
This is the quite typical find_next_bit() user:
unsigned int cpumask_next(int n, const struct cpumask *srcp)
{
/* -1 is a legal arg here. */
if (n != -1)
cpumask_check(n);
return find_next_bit(cpumask_bits(srcp), nr_cpumask_bits, n + 1);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(cpumask_next);
On ARM64 if CONFIG_FAST_PATH is disabled it generates:
0000000000000000 <cpumask_next>:
0: a9bf7bfd stp x29, x30, [sp, #-16]!
4: 11000402 add w2, w0, #0x1
8: aa0103e0 mov x0, x1
c: d2800401 mov x1, #0x40 // torvalds#64
10: 910003fd mov x29, sp
14: 93407c42 sxtw x2, w2
18: 94000000 bl 0 <find_next_bit>
1c: a8c17bfd ldp x29, x30, [sp], torvalds#16
20: d65f03c0 ret
24: d503201f nop
If CONFIG_FAST_PATH is enabled:
0000000000000140 <cpumask_next>:
140: 11000400 add w0, w0, #0x1
144: 93407c00 sxtw x0, w0
148: f100fc1f cmp x0, #0x3f
14c: 54000168 b.hi 178 <cpumask_next+0x38> // b.pmore
150: f9400023 ldr x3, [x1]
154: 92800001 mov x1, #0xffffffffffffffff // #-1
158: 9ac02020 lsl x0, x1, x0
15c: 52800802 mov w2, #0x40 // torvalds#64
160: 8a030001 and x1, x0, x3
164: dac00020 rbit x0, x1
168: f100003f cmp x1, #0x0
16c: dac01000 clz x0, x0
170: 1a800040 csel w0, w2, w0, eq // eq = none
174: d65f03c0 ret
178: 52800800 mov w0, #0x40 // torvalds#64
17c: d65f03c0 ret
find_next_bit() call is replaced with 6 instructions. (And I suspect
we can improve the GENMASK() for better code generation.) find_next_bit()
itself is 41 instructions.
