Re: uint6korr optimization

 

Thanks for the suggestions, Kristian.
I for some reason didn't notice that __builtin_bswap things.

Best regards.

Do it like this:
static inline ulonglong
mi_uint6korr(const void *p)
{
   uint32 a= *(uint32 *)p;
   uint16 b= *(uint16 *)(4+(char *)p);
   ulonglong v= ((ulonglong)a | ((ulonglong)b << 32)) << 16;
   asm ("bswapq %0" : "=r" (v) : "0" (v));
   return v;
}
Note that GCC also has __builtin_bswap64() (and __builtin_bswap32()). They
also generate bswap instruction, but would also work on other platforms...
