Hm,

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <unistd.h>

typedef unsigned char __u8;
typedef unsigned char u8;

#if 1
static inline unsigned char fat_checksum(const __u8 *name)
{
unsigned char s = name[0];
s = (s<<7) + (s>>1) + name[1]; s = (s<<7) + (s>>1) + name[2];
s = (s<<7) + (s>>1) + name[3]; s = (s<<7) + (s>>1) + name[4];
s = (s<<7) + (s>>1) + name[5]; s = (s<<7) + (s>>1) + name[6];
s = (s<<7) + (s>>1) + name[7]; s = (s<<7) + (s>>1) + name[8];
s = (s<<7) + (s>>1) + name[9]; s = (s<<7) + (s>>1) + name[10];
return s;
}
#else
static inline unsigned char fat_checksum(const __u8 *name)
{
unsigned char s = name[0];
u8 i;
for (i = 1; i < 11; i++)
s = (s << 7) + (s >> 1) + name[i];
return s;
}
#endif

static __attribute__ ((noinline)) int test(unsigned char *name)
{
long i;
for (i = 0; i < 100000000L; i++)
name[i % 11] = fat_checksum(name);
return name[0];
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
printf("%u\n", test((unsigned char *)argv[1]));
return 0;
}
