The assembly is originally based on the ARM NEON and int.uc, but uses RISC-V vector instructions to implement the RAID6 syndrome and recovery calculations. The functions are tested on QEMU running with the option "-icount shift=0": raid6: rvvx1 gen() 1008 MB/s raid6: rvvx2 gen() 1395 MB/s raid6: rvvx4 gen() 1584 MB/s raid6: rvvx8 gen() 1694 MB/s raid6: int64x8 gen() 113 MB/s raid6: int64x4 gen() 116 MB/s raid6: int64x2 gen() 272 MB/s raid6: int64x1 gen() 229 MB/s raid6: using algorithm rvvx8 gen() 1694 MB/s raid6: .... xor() 1000 MB/s, rmw enabled raid6: using rvv recovery algorithm [Charlie: - Fixup vector options] Signed-off-by: Charlie Jenkins <charlie@rivosinc.com> Signed-off-by: Chunyan Zhang <zhangchunyan@iscas.ac.cn> Reviewed-by: Charlie Jenkins <charlie@rivosinc.com> Tested-by: Charlie Jenkins <charlie@rivosinc.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250305083707.74218-1-zhangchunyan@iscas.ac.cn Signed-off-by: Alexandre Ghiti <alexghiti@rivosinc.com> Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@dabbelt.com>
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.
