http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2013-08/msg00102.html This is a rather large patch due to formatting and renaming. The formatting changes were to make it possible to compare power7 and power4 versions of memcmp. Using different register defines came about while I was wrestling with the code, trying to find spare registers at one stage. I found it much simpler if we refer to a reg by the same name throughout a function, so it's better if short-term multiple use regs like rTMP are referred to using their register number. I made the cr field usage changes when attempting to reload rWORDn regs in the exit path to byte swap before comparing when little-endian. That proved a bad idea due to the pipelining involved in the main loop; Offsets to reload the regs were different first time around the loop.. Anyway, I left the cr field usage changes in place for consistency. Aside from these more-or-less cosmetic changes, I fixed a number of places where an early exit path restores regs unnecessarily, removed some dead code, and optimised one or two exits. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power7/memcmp.S: Add little-endian support. Formatting. Consistently use rXXX register defines or rN defines. Use early exit labels that avoid restoring unused non-volatile regs. Make cr field use more consistent with rWORDn compares. Rename regs used as shift registers for unaligned loop, using rN defines for short lifetime/multiple use regs. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/power4/memcmp.S: Likewise. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/power7/memcmp.S: Likewise. Exit with addi 1,1,64 to pop stack frame. Simplify return value code. * sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc32/power4/memcmp.S: Likewise. |
