Today we get the following code generation for bitops like set or clear bit: c0009fe0: 39 40 08 00 li r10,2048 c0009fe4: 7c e0 40 28 lwarx r7,0,r8 c0009fe8: 7c e7 53 78 or r7,r7,r10 c0009fec: 7c e0 41 2d stwcx. r7,0,r8 c000d568: 39 00 18 00 li r8,6144 c000d56c: 7c c0 38 28 lwarx r6,0,r7 c000d570: 7c c6 40 78 andc r6,r6,r8 c000d574: 7c c0 39 2d stwcx. r6,0,r7 Most set bits are constant on lower 16 bits, so it can easily be replaced by the "immediate" version of the operation. Allow GCC to choose between the normal or immediate form. For clear bits, on 32 bits 'rlwinm' can be used instead of 'andc' for when all bits to be cleared are consecutive. On 64 bits we don't have any equivalent single operation for clearing, single bits or a few bits, we'd need two 'rldicl' so it is not worth it, the li/andc sequence is doing the same. With this patch we get: c0009fe0: 7d 00 50 28 lwarx r8,0,r10 c0009fe4: 61 08 08 00 ori r8,r8,2048 c0009fe8: 7d 00 51 2d stwcx. r8,0,r10 c000d558: 7c e0 40 28 lwarx r7,0,r8 c000d55c: 54 e7 05 64 rlwinm r7,r7,0,21,18 c000d560: 7c e0 41 2d stwcx. r7,0,r8 On pmac32_defconfig, it reduces the text by approx 10 kbytes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
