Subject: [PATCH] x86: Change x86 to use generic find_next_bit
x86: Change x86 to use the generic find_next_bit implementation
The versions with inline assembly are in fact slower on the machines I
tested them on (in userspace) (Athlon XP 2800+, p4-like Xeon 2.8GHz, AMD
Opteron 270). The i386-version needed a fix similar to 06024f21 to avoid
crashing the benchmark.
Benchmark using: gcc -fomit-frame-pointer -Os. For each bitmap size
1...512, for each possible bitmap with one bit set, for each possible
offset: find the position of the first bit starting at offset. If you
follow ;). Times include setup of the bitmap and checking of the
results.
Athlon Xeon Opteron 32/64bit
x86-specific: 0m3.692s 0m2.820s 0m3.196s / 0m2.480s
generic: 0m2.622s 0m1.662s 0m2.100s / 0m1.572s
If the bitmap size is not a multiple of BITS_PER_LONG, and no set
(cleared) bit is found, find_next_bit (find_next_zero_bit) returns a
value outside of the range [0,size]. The generic version always returns
exactly size. The generic version also uses unsigned long everywhere,
while the x86 versions use a mishmash of int, unsigned (int), long and
unsigned long.
Using the generic version does give a slightly bigger kernel, though.

Hi,
I think it would be a good idea to use the generic versions of
find_next_bit and find_next_zero_bit. The i386 versions have
a bug, and the generic ones are faster (in my probably
not-so-representative micro-benchmark, that is).
Patch is against -x86#testing. It compiles.
Greetings,
Alexander
