The proof of this technique can be found in the commit log for f9b4192923fa6e38331e88214b1fe5fc21583fcc ("bitops: hweight() speedup"). The userspace benchmark on x86_32 showed 20% speedup with bitmap_weight() which uses hweight32 to count bits for each unsigned long on 32bit architectures. int main(void) { #define SZ (1024 * 1024 * 512) static DECLARE_BITMAP(bitmap, SZ) = { [0 ... 100] = 1, }; return bitmap_weight(bitmap, SZ); } Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Cc: Linus Torvalds LKML-Reference: <1258603932-4590-1-git-send-email-akinobu.mita@gmail.com> [ only x86 sets ARCH_HAS_FAST_MULTIPLIER so we do this via the x86 tree] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
