[PATCH 1/1] arm64: Add ARM64 optimized IP checksum routine

From: Luke Starrett
Date: Tue May 10 2016 - 14:27:38 EST


This change implements an optimized checksum for arm64, based loosely on
the original arch/arm implementation. Load-pair is used for the initial
16B load, reducing the overall number of loads to two for packets without
IP options. Instruction count is reduced by ~3x compared to generic C
implementation. Changes were tested against LE and BE operation and for
all possible mis-alignments.
