Subject: [PATCH] ksm: replace jhash2 with xxhash
Replace jhash2 with xxhash.
Perf numbers:
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2420 v2 @ 2.20GHz
ksm: crc32c hash() 12081 MB/s
ksm: xxh64 hash() 8770 MB/s
ksm: xxh32 hash() 4529 MB/s
ksm: jhash2 hash() 1569 MB/s
Sioh Lee did some testing:
crc32c_intel: 1084.10ns
crc32c (no hardware acceleration): 7012.51ns
xxhash32: 2227.75ns
xxhash64: 1413.16ns
jhash2: 5128.30ns
As jhash2 always will be slower (for data size like PAGE_SIZE). Don't use
it in ksm at all.
Use only xxhash for now, because for using crc32c, cryptoapi must be
initialized first - that requires some tricky solution to work well in all
situations.
