[PATCH v5] riscv: introduce asm/swab.h

Thu Jul 17 11:44:02 PDT 2025
Implement endianness swap macros for RISC-V.
Use the rev8 instruction when Zbb is available. Otherwise, rely on the
default mask-and-shift implementation.

Motivated by [1]. Tested with crc_kunit as pointed out here [2]. I can't
provide performance numbers as I don't have RISC-V hardware.

Changes in v5:
- Duplicate ___constant_swab helpers in arch/riscv/include/asm/swab.h to
avoid delaying the patch as suggested by Alex in [3] (drop patch 1 and
convert this into a 1-patch series)
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250426-riscv-swab-v4-0-64201404a68c@iencinas.com
[3] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/7e22a448-3cee-4475-b69b-3dd45b57f168@ghiti.fr/
Changes in v4:
- Add missing include in the 1st patch, reported by
https://lore.kernel.org/all/202504042300.it9RcOSt-lkp@intel.com/
- Rewrite the ARCH_SWAB macro as suggested by Arnd
- Define __arch_swab64 for CONFIG_32BIT (Ben)
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250403-riscv-swab-v3-0-3bf705d80e33@iencinas.com
Changes in v3:
PATCH 2:
Use if(riscv_has_extension_likely) instead of asm goto (Eric). It
looks like both versions generate the same assembly. Perhaps we should
do the same change in other places such as arch/riscv/include/asm/bitops.h
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250319-riscv-swab-v2-0-d53b6d6ab915@iencinas.com
Changes in v2:
- Introduce first patch factoring out the default implementation into
asm-generic
- Remove blank line to make checkpatch happy
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250310-riscv-swab-v1-1-34652ef1ee96@iencinas.com
