These\noptimizations required changes to the data format and signature of the\nrelevant functions to support dense hitmasks (no padding) and having the\nprimary and secondary hitmasks interleaved instead of being in their own\narray each.\n\nBenchmarking the cuckoo hash perf test, I observed this effect on speed:\n  There are no significant changes on Intel (ran on Sapphire Rapids)\n  Neon is up to 7-10% faster (ran on ampere altra)\n  128b SVE is about 3-5% slower than the optimized neon (ran on a graviton\n    3 cloud instance)\n  256b SVE is about 0-3% slower than the optimized neon (ran on a graviton\n    3 cloud instance)\n\nV2->V3:\n  Remove a redundant if in the test\n  Change a couple int to uint16_t in compare_signatures_dense\n  Several codding-style fix\n\nV3->V4:\n  Rebase\n\nV4->V5:\n  Commit message\n\nV5->V6:\n  Move the arch-specific code into new arch-specific files\n  Isolate the data struture refactor from adding SVE\n\nYoan Picchi (4):\n  hash: pack the hitmask for hash in bulk lookup\n  hash: optimize compare signature for NEON\n  test/hash: check bulk lookup of keys after collision\n  hash: add SVE support for bulk key lookup\n\n .mailmap                                  |   2 +\n app/test/test_hash.c                      |  99 ++++++++---\n lib/hash/arch/arm/compare_signatures.h    | 117 +++++++++++++\n lib/hash/arch/common/compare_signatures.h |  38 +++++\n lib/hash/arch/x86/compare_signatures.h    |  53 ++++++\n lib/hash/rte_cuckoo_hash.c                | 197 ++++++++++++----------\n lib/hash/rte_cuckoo_hash.h                |   1 +\n 7 files changed, 392 insertions(+), 115 deletions(-)\n create mode 100644 lib/hash/arch/arm/compare_signatures.h\n create mode 100644 lib/hash/arch/common/compare_signatures.h\n create mode 100644 lib/hash/arch/x86/compare_signatures.h"
