From 43ff5e01ecba41628f68eb3c62fd49e0405fcca9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Henderson Date: Mon, 29 Aug 2016 11:46:20 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] cutils: Remove ppc buffer zero checking For ppc64le, gcc6 does extremely poorly with the Altivec code. Moreover, on POWER7 and POWER8, a hand-optimized Altivec version turns out to be no faster than the revised integer version, and therefore not worth the effort.
