Subject: vsprintf.c: optimizing, part 1 (easy and obvious stuff)
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.23-rc1~798
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b39a734097d5095d63eb9c709a6aaf965633bb01;p=linux-2.6

vsprintf.c: optimizing, part 1 (easy and obvious stuff)

* There is no point in having full "0...9a...z" constant vector,
  if we use only "0...9a...f" (and "x" for "0x").

* Post-decrement usually needs a few more instructions, so use
  pre decrement instead where makes sense:
-       while (i < precision--) {
+       while (i <= --precision) {

* if base != 10 (=> base 8 or 16), we can avoid using division
  in a loop and use mask/shift, obtaining much faster conversion.
  (More complex optimization for base 10 case is in the second patch).

Overall, size vsprintf.o shows ~80 bytes smaller text section
with this patch applied.
