[PATCH v6] lib: optimize cpumask_next_and()

From: Clement Courbet
Date: Wed Nov 29 2017 - 04:58:18 EST


We've measured that we spend ~0.6% of sys cpu time in cpumask_next_and().
It's essentially a joined iteration in search for a non-zero bit, which
is currently implemented as a lookup join (find a nonzero bit on the
lhs, lookup the rhs to see if it's set there).

Implement a direct join (find a nonzero bit on the incrementally built
join).
Also add generic bitmap benchmarks in the new `test_find_bit` module
for new function (see `find_next_and_bit` in [2] and [3] below).

For cpumask_next_and, direct benchmarking shows that it's 1.17x to 14x
faster with a geometric mean of 2.1 on 32 CPUs [1]. No impact on memory
usage.
Note that on Arm, the new pure-C implementation still outperforms
the old one that uses a mix of C and asm (`find_next_bit`) [3].

[1] Approximate benchmark code:

```
unsigned long src1p[nr_cpumask_longs] = {pattern1};
unsigned long src2p[nr_cpumask_longs] = {pattern2};
for (/*a bunch of repetitions*/) {
for (int n = -1; n <= nr_cpu_ids; ++n) {
asm volatile("" : "+rm"(src1p)); // prevent any optimization
asm volatile("" : "+rm"(src2p));
unsigned long result = cpumask_next_and(n, src1p, src2p);
asm volatile("" : "+rm"(result));
}
}
```

Results:

Changes in v2:
- Refactored _find_next_common_bit into _find_next_bit., as suggested
by Yury Norov. This has no adverse effects on the performance side,
as the compiler successfully inlines the code.

Changes in v3:
- Fixes find_next_and_bit() declaration.
- Synchronize _find_next_bit_le() with _find_next_bit()
- Synchronize the code in tools/lib/find_bit.c
- Add find_next_and_bit to guard code
- Fix invert value (bad sync with our internal tree on which I'm doing
the testing).

Changes in v4:
- Mark _find_next_bit() inline.

Changes in v5:
- Added benchmarks to test_find_bit.cc
- Fixed arm compilation: added missing header to arm bitops.h

Changes in v6:
- Removed test for reference implementation, which was a temporary
artifact.
- Prettify test output.
