2012-03-07lib: reduce the use of module.h wherever possiblePaul Gortmaker
For files only using THIS_MODULE and/or EXPORT_SYMBOL, map them onto including export.h -- or if the file isn't even using those, then just delete the include. Fix up any implicit include dependencies that were being masked by module.h along the way. Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker <paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>
2011-07-07lib/checksum.c: optimize do_csum a bitIan Abbott
Reduce the number of variables modified by the loop in do_csum() by 1, which seems like a good idea. On Nios II (a RISC CPU with 3-operand instruction set) it reduces the loop from 7 to 6 instructions, including the conditional branch.

2009-11-03lib/checksum: fix one more thinkoArnd Bergmann
When do_csum gets unaligned data, we really need to treat the first byte as an even byte, not an odd byte, because we swap the two halves later. Found by Mike's checksum-selftest module. Reported-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier.adi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2009-11-03lib/checksum.c: make do_csum optionalArnd Bergmann
Mike Frysinger suggested that do_csum should be optional so that an architecture can use the generic checksum code but still provide an optimized fast-path for the most critical function. This can mean an implementation using inline assembly, or in case of Alpha one using 64-bit arithmetic in C. Cc: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org> Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
2009-11-03lib/checksum.c: use 32-bit arithmetic consistentlyArnd Bergmann
The use of 'unsigned long' variables in the 32-bit part of do_csum() is confusing at best, and potentially broken for long input on 64-bit machines. This changes the code to use 'unsigned int' instead, which makes the code behave in the same (correct) way on both 32 and 64 bit machines.

2009-06-19lib/checksum.c: fix endianess bugArnd Bergmann
The new generic checksum code has a small dependency on endianess and worked only on big-endian systems. I could not find a nice efficient way to express this, so I added an #ifdef. Using 'result += le16_to_cpu(*buff);' would have worked as well, but would be slightly less efficient on big-endian systems and IMHO would not be clearer. Also fix a bug that prevents this from working on 64-bit machines. If you have a 64-bit CPU and want to use the generic checksum code, you should probably do some more optimizations anyway, but at least the code should not break.

2009-06-11add generic lib/checksum.cArnd Bergmann
Add a generic (unoptimized) implementation of checksum.c in pure C for use by all architectures that cannot be bother with implementing their own version.
