Re: Fwd: about udelay in mips


Hello.

hi all:
I guess there seems be some differences about
"unsigned long long" and "ull" so I forward the letter to gcc-help.
If my guess is correct, what are the differences between them and why
"unsigned long long" cannot let compiler compile the 64-bits
operations as I want?

Probably because in 2.6.30 you only cast the result of 32-bit multiplies to 64 bits. In the 2.6.33 kernel, the mutliplies are 64-bit as the 0x000010c7ull constant is 64-bit...


thanks a lot,

I found my kernel will compile udelay(xx) as zero no matter what xx I filled in.
below are the dis-assemblies:
(as you can see the v0 = v1 = zero.)
My version is 2.6.30.9:
void __udelay(unsigned long us)
{
        unsigned int lpj = current_cpu_data.udelay_val;

        __delay(((unsigned long long)(us * 0x000010c7 * HZ * lpj)) >> 32);
80306ed0:       00001821        move    v1,zero
80306ed4:       00601021        move    v0,v1
#include<asm/compiler.h>
#include<asm/war.h>

inline void __delay(unsigned int loops)
{
        __asm__ __volatile__ (
80306ed8:       1440ffff        bnez    v0,80306ed8 <__udelay+0x8>
80306edc:       2442ffff        addiu   v0,v0,-1
void __udelay(unsigned long us)

I have double checked the __delay source code of 2.6.33.4
and the dis-assemblies:

void __udelay(unsigned long us)
{
        unsigned int lpj = current_cpu_data.udelay_val;

        __delay((us * 0x000010c7ull * HZ * lpj) >> 32);
