Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] riscv: word-at-a-time: improve find_zero() without Zbb
Date: Mon, 7 Sep 2026 23:11:07 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260907151108.7538-3-jszhang@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260907151108.7538-1-jszhang@kernel.org>
Previous commit improved the find_zero() performance for !RISCV_ISA_ZBB.
What about RISCV_ISA_ZBB=y but the HW doesn't support Zbb? We have the
same heavy generic fls64() issue.
Let's improve this situation by checking Zbb extension and fall back
to generic count_masked_bytes() if Zbb isn't supported.
To remove non-necessary zero bits couting on RV32, we also replace the
'fls64(mask) >> 3' with '!mask ? 0 : ((__fls(mask) + 1) >> 3);'
We will get similar performance improvement as previous commit for
RISCV_ISA_ZBB=y but HW doesn't support Zbb.
