0002: I just noticed another thing that could be done in a separate
follow-up patch:
@@ -220,17 +170,6 @@ pg_popcount_masked_portable(const char *buf, int
bytes, bits8 mask)
* actual external functions. The compiler should be able to inline the
* portable versions here.
*/
-int
-pg_popcount32(uint32 word)
-{
- return pg_popcount32_portable(word);
-}
The last sentence doesn't seem to be true anymore for the functions
that remain here:
(Needed to add "#undef HAVE_X86_64_POPCNTQ" in a few places to demonstrate)
objdump --no-show-raw-insn --no-addresses -drwC -M intel
/path/to/postgres | grep -C 5 pg_popcount_portable
<pg_popcount_optimized>:
jmp <pg_popcount_portable>
I don't think we need to worry about this, but the attached looks
nicer to me. There might be a disadvantage of using macros here, but
I'm not sure what it would be.
