The idea is to make the loop unrolling independent of whether the compiler is able to unroll through specific optimizations options (-funroll-loops or -funroll-all-loops). For instance, to implement strcpy with SRC being the source input and DEST the destination buffer, it is expected the macro to be used in this way: #define ITERATION(index) \ ({ char c = *str++; *dest++ = c; c != '\0' }) while (1) UNROLL_REPEAT (4, ITERATION) The loop will be manually unrolled 4 times. Another option is to do the index update after the tests: #define ITERATION(index) \ ({ char c = *(str + index); *(dest + index) = c; c != '\0' }) #define UPDATE(n) \ str += n; dst += n while (1) UNROLL_REPEAT_UPDATE (4, ITERATION, UPDATE) The loop will be manually unrolled 4 times and the SRC and DEST pointers will be updated only after the last iteration. Currently, both macros unroll the loop 8 times at maximum. */ #define UNROLL_REPEAT_1(X) if (!X(0)) break; #define UNROLL_REPEAT_2(X) UNROLL_REPEAT_1 (X) if (!X (1)) break; #define UNROLL_REPEAT_3(X) UNROLL_REPEAT_2 (X) if (!X (2)) break; #define UNROLL_REPEAT_4(X) UNROLL_REPEAT_3 (X) if (!X (3)) break; #define UNROLL_REPEAT_5(X) UNROLL_REPEAT_4 (X) if (!X (4)) break; #define UNROLL_REPEAT_6(X) UNROLL_REPEAT_5 (X) if (!X (5)) break; #define UNROLL_REPEAT_7(X) UNROLL_REPEAT_6 (X) if (!X (6)) break; #define UNROLL_REPEAT_8(X) UNROLL_REPEAT_7 (X) if (!X (7)) break; #define UNROLL_EXPAND(...) __VA_ARGS__ #define UNROLL_REPEAT__(N, X) UNROLL_EXPAND(UNROLL_REPEAT_ ## N) (X) #define UNROLL_REPEAT_(N, X) UNROLL_REPEAT__ (N, X) #define UNROLL_REPEAT(N, X) \ (void) ({ \ UNROLL_REPEAT_ (UNROLL_EXPAND(N), X); \ }) #define UNROLL_REPEAT_UPDATE(N, X, U) \ (void) ({ \ UNROLL_REPEAT_ (UNROLL_EXPAND(N), X); \ UPDATE (N); \ }) #endif
