Any reason for not letting compiler to unroll the loops?
Hi Jason,
I'm not sure about how much compiler can help on unrolling loops as it can't
know how much loops will create in one call.
After force not using unroll-loop optimization by "-fno-unroll-loops",
virtio_dev_rx_packed function size remained the same.
So look like gcc unroll-loop optimization do not help here.
I meant something like "pragma GCC unroll N" just before the loop you
want unrolled.
Thanks
And fast enqueue function not only did unroll loop, it also checked cache
alignment which can help performance in another side.
Regards,
Marvin
Thanks
