The powerpc isnan optimizations are not really a gain:
- GCC will call libm iff -fsignaling-nans is used. This usage pattern
is usually not performance oriented and for such calls PLT overhead
should dominate execution time.
- The power5, power6, and power6x are just micro-optimization to
improve the Load-Hit-Store hazards from floating-point to general
register transfer, and current GCC already has support to minimize
it by inserting either extra nops or group dispatch instructions.
- The power7 uses ftdiv to optimize for some input patterns, but at
cost of others. Comparing against generic C implementation built
for powerpc-linux-gnu-power4 (which uses the hp-timing support on
benchtests):
- Generic sysdeps/ieee754 implementation:
"isnan": {
"": {
"duration": 4.98415e+09,
"iterations": 2.34516e+09,
"max": 45.925,
"min": 2.052,
"mean": 2.12529
},
"INF": {
"duration": 4.74057e+09,
"iterations": 1.69761e+09,
"max": 91.01,
"min": 2.052,
"mean": 2.79249
},
"NAN": {
"duration": 4.74071e+09,
"iterations": 1.68768e+09,
"max": 282.343,
"min": 2.052,
"mean": 2.809
}
}
- power7 optimized one:
$ ./testrun.sh benchtests/bench-isnan
"isnan": {
"": {
"duration": 4.96842e+09,
"iterations": 2.56297e+09,
"max": 50.048,
"min": 1.872,
"mean": 1.93854
},
"INF": {
"duration": 4.76648e+09,
"iterations": 1.54213e+09,
"max": 373.408,
"min": 2.661,
"mean": 3.09084
},
"NAN": {
"duration": 4.76845e+09,
"iterations": 1.54515e+09,
"max": 51.016,
"min": 2.736,
"mean": 3.08607
}
}
So it basically optimizes marginally for normal numbers while
increasing the latency for other kind of FP.
- The generic implementation requires getting the floating point
status, disable the invalid operation bit, and restore the
floating-point status. Each operation is costly and requires
flushing the FP pipeline.
Using the same scenarion for the previous analysis:
"isnan": {
"": {
"duration": 5.08284e+09,
"iterations": 6.2898e+08,
"max": 41.844,
"min": 8.057,
"mean": 8.08108
},
"INF": {
"duration": 4.97904e+09,
"iterations": 6.16176e+08,
"max": 39.661,
"min": 8.057,
"mean": 8.08055
},
"NAN": {
"duration": 4.98695e+09,
"iterations": 5.95866e+08,
"max": 29.728,
"min": 8.345,
"mean": 8.36925
}
}
- The power8 implementation is just the generic implementation using
ISA 2.07 mfvsrd instruction (which GCC uses for generic implementation).
So generic implementation is the best option for powerpc64le.

GCC always expand copysign{f} for all possible cpus, so calling the libm
is only done if user explicitly states to disable the builtin (which is
done usually not for performance reason). So to provide ifunc variant
for copysign is just unrequired complexity, since libm will be called
on non-performance critical code.
This patch removes both powerpc32 and powerpc64 ifunc variants and
consolidates the powerpc implementation on
sysdeps/powerpc/fpu/s_copysign{f}.c using compiler builtins.

Continuing the preparation for additional _FloatN / _FloatNx function

of the need for local compat symbol handling). Previous cleanups
avoid this patch changing installed stripped shared libraries for any

within an individual source file, but in this case this doesn't result
in changes to the final library).

Building glibc for powerpc64 with recent (2.27.51.20161012) binutils,
with multi-arch enabled, I get the error:
../sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power6/memset.S: Assembler messages:
../sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power6/memset.S:254: Error: operand out of range (5 is not between 0 and 1)

Indeed, cmpli is documented as a four-operand instruction, and looking
at nearby code it seems likely cmpldi was intended. This patch fixes
this powerpc64 code accordingly, and makes a corresponding change to
the powerpc32 code.

One of the things I noticed when looking at power7 timing is that rlwimi
is cracked and the two resulting insns have a register dependency.
That makes it a little slower than the equivalent rldimi.

insrdi. Formatting.

LIttle-endian support for memcpy. I spent some time cleaning up the
64-bit power7 memcpy, in order to avoid the extra alignment traps
power7 takes for little-endian. It probably would have been better
to copy the linux kernel version of memcpy.

Initially based on the versions found in wcsmbs/* ; these files have
been changed by hand unrolling, and adding some additional variables
to allow some read-ahead to occur, which then relieves some of the
wait-for-increment/wait-for-load/wait-for-compare-results pressure
that was slowing down every iteration through the while-loop.
For 64-bit Power7, These changes give an approx 20% throughput boost
for the wcschr and wcsrchr functions; and approx 40% boost for the
wcscpy function. 32-bit improvements appear to be slightly better
with ~ %30 and ~ %45 respectively. Results for Power6 closely match
those for power7.
This patch tries to organize the implies files for ppc, since there are
a number of processors and most of them are compatible with each other
(backwards compatible).
Having in mind that we start the search for processor-specific files in
the sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux tree
(sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/[processor]/fpu to be
exact), we would like to grab any linux-specific code from that tree
prior to going through the other tree (sysdeps/powerpc/...).
For that, i removed the Implies files that were originally inside the
fpu directories and placed then in the non-fpu directories (still inside
the unix/sysv/linux tree). If no processor-specific/linux-specific files
could be found, we "imply" the other tree's (sysdeps/powerpc/...) fpu
directory for that specific processor AND also the non-fpu directory for
that same tree.
If, again, no processor-specific code is found, we read another Implies
file that will point to the most compatible processor that we should
grab code from, and so on, until we reach the power4 processor.
So, in summary, the Implies files will live inside these directories
now:
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/[processor]
* sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc[32|64]/[processor]
Practical example of the order we will use to pick power6-specific code
with the new structure.
