lib/vdso: Allow architectures to override the ns shift operation
On powerpc/32, GCC (8.1) generates pretty bad code for the ns >>= vd->shift
operation taking into account that the shift is always <= 32 and the upper
part of the result is likely to be zero. GCC makes reversed assumptions
considering the shift to be likely >= 32 and the upper part to be like not
zero.
unsigned long long shift(unsigned long long x, unsigned char s)
{
return x >> s;
}
results in:
00000018 <shift>:
18: 35 25 ff e0 addic. r9,r5,-32
1c: 41 80 00 10 blt 2c <shift+0x14>
20: 7c 64 4c 30 srw r4,r3,r9
24: 38 60 00 00 li r3,0
28: 4e 80 00 20 blr
2c: 54 69 08 3c rlwinm r9,r3,1,0,30
30: 21 45 00 1f subfic r10,r5,31
34: 7c 84 2c 30 srw r4,r4,r5
38: 7d 29 50 30 slw r9,r9,r10
3c: 7c 63 2c 30 srw r3,r3,r5
40: 7d 24 23 78 or r4,r9,r4
44: 4e 80 00 20 blr
Even when forcing the shift to be smaller than 32 with an &= 31, it still
considers the shift as likely >= 32.
Move the default shift implementation into an inline which can be redefined
in architecture code via a macro.
[ tglx: Made the shift argument u32 and removed the __arch prefix ]
