No objections from my side, I'll let the x86 folks get a chance to review this. I can add this optimization on sparc64 chips that have the crc instructions too. I think we'll need to add implementations hash_3words, hash_2words, and hash_1word when we try to take advantage of this in the networking more generally. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
