    [CRYPTO] twofish: Do not unroll big stuff in twofish key setup · e2b21b50
    Denys Vlasenko authored
    
    
    Currently twofish cipher key setup code
    has unrolled loops - approximately 70-100
    instructions are repeated 40 times.
    
    As a result, twofish module is the biggest module
    in crypto/*.
    
    Unrolling produces x2.5 more code (+18k on i386), and speeds up key
    setup by 7%:
    
    	unrolled: twofish_setkey/sec: 41128
    	    loop: twofish_setkey/sec: 38148
    	CALC_K256: ~100 insns each
    	CALC_K192: ~90 insns
    	   CALC_K: ~70 insns
    
    Attached patch removes this unrolling.
