All assember in this directory are just version of the file
|
||
|
crypto/bn/bn_asm.c.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Quite a few of these files are just the assember output from gcc since on
|
||
|
quite a few machines they are 2 times faster than the system compiler.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For the x86, I have hand written assember because of the bad job all
|
||
|
compilers seem to do on it. This normally gives a 2 time speed up in the RSA
|
||
|
routines.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For the DEC alpha, I also hand wrote the assember (except the division which
|
||
|
is just the output from the C compiler pasted on the end of the file).
|
||
|
On the 2 alpha C compilers I had access to, it was not possible to do
|
||
|
64b x 64b -> 128b calculations (both long and the long long data types
|
||
|
were 64 bits). So the hand assember gives access to the 128 bit result and
|
||
|
a 2 times speedup :-).
|
||
|
|
||
|
There are 3 versions of assember for the HP PA-RISC.
|
||
|
|
||
|
pa-risc.s is the origional one which works fine and generated using gcc :-)
|
||
|
|
||
|
pa-risc2W.s and pa-risc2.s are 64 and 32-bit PA-RISC 2.0 implementations
|
||
|
by Chris Ruemmler from HP (with some help from the HP C compiler).
