Jie Meng says: ==================== With baseline x64 instruction set, shift count can only be an immediate or in %cl. The implicit dependency on %cl makes it necessary to shuffle registers around and/or add push/pop operations. BMI2 provides shift instructions that can use any general register as the shift count, saving us instructions and a few bytes in most cases. Suboptimal codegen when %ecx is source and/or destination is also addressed and unnecessary instructions are removed. test_progs: Summary: 267/1340 PASSED, 25 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED test_progs-no_alu32: Summary: 267/1333 PASSED, 26 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED test_verifier: Summary: 1367 PASSED, 636 SKIPPED, 0 FAILED (same result with or without BMI2) test_maps: OK, 0 SKIPPED lib/test_bpf: test_bpf: Summary: 1026 PASSED, 0 FAILED, [1014/1014 JIT'ed] test_bpf: test_tail_calls: Summary: 10 PASSED, 0 FAILED, [10/10 JIT'ed] test_bpf: test_skb_segment: Summary: 2 PASSED, 0 FAILED --- v4 -> v5: - More comments regarding instruction encoding v3 -> v4: - Fixed a regression when BMI2 isn't available ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> |

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
