This patchset adds SVE support for the signature comparison in the cuckoo hash lookup and improves the existing NEON implementation. These optimizations required changes to the data format and signature of the relevant functions to support dense hitmasks (no padding) and having the primary and secondary hitmasks interleaved instead of being in their own array each.
Benchmarking the cuckoo hash perf test, I observed this effect on speed: There are no significant changes on Intel (ran on Sapphire Rapids) Neon is up to 7-10% faster (ran on ampere altra) 128b SVE is about 3-5% slower than the optimized neon (ran on a graviton 3 cloud instance) 256b SVE is about 0-3% slower than the optimized neon (ran on a graviton 3 cloud instance) Yoan Picchi (4): hash: pack the hitmask for hash in bulk lookup hash: optimize compare signature for NEON test/hash: check bulk lookup of keys after collision hash: add SVE support for bulk key lookup .mailmap | 2 + app/test/test_hash.c | 99 ++++++++++---- lib/hash/rte_cuckoo_hash.c | 264 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-------- lib/hash/rte_cuckoo_hash.h | 1 + 4 files changed, 287 insertions(+), 79 deletions(-) -- 2.25.1
