Something like below, which has the advantange that there is still only
one implementation of the function
True, that´s a great advantage.
and if it's still slower, we really need to check the compiler
Please have a look at the following patch. It takes your idea of
inlining but moves
the special cases into the macro, speeding things up for the very likely
case of
s_pitch == 1 and the less likely case of s_pitch of 2. Treating s_pitch
== 2 special
gives a still significant performance improvement of more than 10 % for
16x30
fonts.
This way also bit_putcs looks better again ...
Andrew, as this way is better than and still as fast as my first
approach I think
framebuffer-bit_putcs-optimization-for-8x.patch should be reverted and the
following patch should be applied instead.
Antonino, Roman, Geert, do you agree?
