ipv6 fib: Use "Sweezle" to optimize addr_bit_test().
addr_bit_test() is used in various places in IPv6 routing table subsystem. It checks if the given fn_bit is set, where fn_bit counts bits from MSB in words in network-order. fn_bit : 0 .... 31 32 .... 64 65 .... 95 96 ....127 fn_bit >> 5 gives offset of word, and (~fn_bit & 0x1f) gives count from LSB in the network-endian word in question. fn_bit >> 5 : 0 1 2 3 ~fn_bit & 0x1f: 31 .... 0 31 .... 0 31 .... 0 31 .... 0 Thus, the mask was generated as htonl(1 << (~fn_bit & 0x1f)). This can be optimized by "sweezle" (See include/asm-generic/bitops/le.h). In little-endian, htonl(1 << bit) = 1 << (bit ^ BITOP_BE32_SWIZZLE) where BITOP_BE32_SWIZZLE is (0x1f & ~7) So, htonl(1 << (~fn_bit & 0x1f)) = 1 << ((~fn_bit & 0x1f) ^ (0x1f & ~7)) = 1 << ((~fn_bit ^ ~7) & 0x1f) = 1 << ((~fn_bit ^ BITOP_BE32_SWIZZLE) & 0x1f) In big-endian, BITOP_BE32_SWIZZLE is equal to 0. 1 << ((~fn_bit ^ BITOP_BE32_SWIZZLE) & 0x1f) = 1 << ((~fn_bit) & 0x1f) = htonl(1 << (~fn_bit & 0x1f)) Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki <yoshfuji@linux-ipv6.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
