Hi Linaro Toochain Group,
I have few questions on glibc+libm w.r.t aarch64.
If possible, please provide some insight, otherwise kindly redirect me to
the concerned person/forum.
1.It seems from the community patches that ARM/Linaro is optimizing glibc
functions such as memcpy/memmove, string for aarch64.
However, looks like some of these (e.g. memcpy/memmov) patches are still
not merged in glibc. Any comment on their availability in glibc?
e.g. https://www.sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2015-12/msg00341.html
2. On the same note, is there any plan for optimizing/tuning libm functions
(e.g. trigonometric) for aarch64?
I could find any matching patches on review board. Please correct me if I
am wrong.
3. Looks like ARM have released an independent version of libm for certain
trigonometric functions.
https://github.com/ARM-software/optimized-routines.
Any plan of these optimization going in glibc's libm? Any comment on its
performance improvement over GNU libm ?
Thanks in advance for your time.
