Todd Lipcon commented on HADOOP-7446:
-------------------------------------
Why's that? rbx is the 64-bit version of ebx - we need to save off and restore
the whole register, even though cpuid only writes 32 bits into it. Or am I
misunderstanding this?
> Implement CRC32C native code using SSE4.2 instructions

> Key: HADOOP-7446
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7446
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: native
> Affects Versions: 0.23.0
> Reporter: Todd Lipcon
> Assignee: Todd Lipcon
> Fix For: 0.23.0

> Once HADOOP-7445 is implemented, we can get further performance improvements
> by implementing CRC32C using the hardware support available in SSE4.2. This
> support should be dynamically enabled based on CPU feature flags, and of
> course should be ifdeffed properly so that it doesn't break the build on
> architectures/platforms where it's not available.
