Replace the literal load of the addend vector with a sequence that performs each add individually. This sequence is only 2 instructions longer than the original, and 2% faster on Cortex-A53. This is an improvement by itself, but also works around a Clang issue, whose integrated assembler does not implement the GNU ARM asm syntax completely, and does not support the =literal notation for FP registers (more info at https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38642) Cc: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulniers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
