Hello, I now again have time to string functions.
I consider using following replacement of bsf:
static char first_bit_short_ary[]=
{[0]=16,[1]=0,[2]=1,[4]=2,[8]=3,[16]=4,[32]=5,[64]=6,[128]=7,[256]=8,
[512]=9,[1024]=10,[2048]=11,[4096]=12,[8192]=13,[16384]=14,[32768]=15
};
inline int first_bit_short(int x){
return first_bit_short_ary[x&(-x)];
}
in function prologue as it deals only 16 bit values.
How fast is this on atom?
Cost is 11 cache lines which look acceptable to me.
