The comment from Linus is “The code looks clever and nice”!
a. memcpy in Linux kernel
Patch: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/296282/
commit id: 59daa706fbec745684702741b9f5373142dd9fdc
First completely avoid memory false dependence in CPU pipeline, which impacts all x86 CPU, the performance is improved up to 3X, pushed into Linux kernel release version, and replaced original one, which stayed for 8 years.
b. memmove in Linux kernel
Patch: http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/9/16/502
commit id: 3b4b682becdfa9f42321aa024d5cc84f71f06d8c
Avoid long latency and some limitation from mov string instruction, which cost much time in decoding stage, and memory false dependence for unaligned cases.
H.J and I provide the below codes.
a. 64bit memcpy/memmove for Atom, Core2 and Core i7
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.glibc.alpha/15278
This patch includes optimized 64bit memcpy/memmove for Atom, Core 2 and
Core i7. It improves memcpy up to 3X on Atom, up to 4X on Core 2 and
up to 1X on Core i7. It also improves memmove by up to 3X on Atom, up to
4X on Core 2 and up to 2X on Core i7.
b. 64bit memcmp for Core i7
http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2010-04/msg00030.html
This is 64bit SSE4 optimized memcmp. It improves memcmp by up to 3X
on Intel Core i7.
c. 64bit strcmp
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2009-07/msg00063.html
The code is checked in glibc and opensolaris library.
d. 64bit strcpy
http://src.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/lib/libc/amd64/gen/strcpy.s
The code is checked in glibc and opensolaris library.
e. 32bit memset/memcpy for Atom, Core2 and Corei7
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2010-01/msg00016.html
Their performances are all improved up to 3x~4x, pushed into moblin libc successfully.
f. 32bit memcmp/strcmp/strncmp for Atom, Core2 and Corei7.
http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2010-02/msg00028.html
The patch is to provide 32bit memcmp/strcmp/strncmp optimized for
SSSE3/SSS4.2. It can improve memcmp by up to 3X, strcmp by up to 7x
