Optimize the AVX-512 version of _compute_first_set_of_tweaks by using vectorized shifts to compute the first vector of tweak blocks, and by using byte-aligned shifts when multiplying by x^8. AES-XTS performance on AMD Ryzen 9 9950X (Zen 5) improves by about 2% for 4096-byte messages or 6% for 512-byte messages. AES-XTS performance on Intel Sapphire Rapids improves by about 1% for 4096-byte messages or 3% for 512-byte messages. Code size decreases by 75 bytes which outweighs the increase in rodata size of 16 bytes. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
