  124. bool
  125. help
  126. Modern versions of GCC (since 4.4) have builtin functions
  127. for handling byte-swapping. Using these, instead of the old
  128. inline assembler that the architecture code provides in the
  129. __arch_bswapXX() macros, allows the compiler to see what's
  130. happening and offers more opportunity for optimisation. In
  131. particular, the compiler will be able to combine the byteswap
  132. with a nearby load or store and use load-and-swap or
  133. store-and-swap instructions if the architecture has them. It
  134. should almost *never* result in code which is worse than the
  135. hand-coded assembler in <asm/swab.h>. But just in case it
  136. does, the use of the builtins is optional.
