H A D | log2.h | f0d1b0b3 Fri Dec 08 04:37:49 CST 2006 David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> [PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernel
This facility provides three entry points:
ilog2() Log base 2 of unsigned long ilog2_u32() Log base 2 of u32 ilog2_u64() Log base 2 of u64
These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:
int do_something(long q) { ...; y = ilog2(x) ...; }
Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:
unsigned n = ilog2(27);
When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error: initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of something not reducible to a constant. They treat negative numbers as unsigned.
When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.

H A D | page_alloc.c | f0d1b0b3 Fri Dec 08 04:37:49 CST 2006 David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> [PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernel
This facility provides three entry points:
ilog2() Log base 2 of unsigned long ilog2_u32() Log base 2 of u32 ilog2_u64() Log base 2 of u64
These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:
int do_something(long q) { ...; y = ilog2(x) ...; }
Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:
unsigned n = ilog2(27);
When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error: initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of something not reducible to a constant. They treat negative numbers as unsigned.
When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.
