Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/3] kernel: add support for 256-bit IO access
Date:   Mon, 19 Mar 2018 19:50:33 +0530
Message-Id: <cover.1521469118.git.rahul.lakkireddy@chelsio.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

This series of patches add support for 256-bit IO read and write.
The APIs are readqq and writeqq (quad quadword - 4 x 64), that read
and write 256-bits at a time from IO, respectively.

Patch 1 adds u256 type and adds necessary non-atomic accessors.  Also
adds byteorder conversion APIs.

Patch 2 adds 256-bit read and write to x86 via VMOVDQU AVX CPU
instructions.

Patch 3 updates cxgb4 driver to use the readqq API to speed up
reading on-chip memory 256-bits at a time.

Feedback and suggestions will be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Rahul
