[PATCH v16 0/2] net: optimize __rte_raw_cksum

[Morten Brørup]

> From: Scott <scott_mitchell at apple.com>
> 
> This series optimizes __rte_raw_cksum by replacing memcpy with direct
> pointer access, enabling compiler vectorization on both GCC and Clang.
> 
> Patch 1 adds __rte_may_alias to unaligned typedefs to prevent a GCC
> strict-aliasing bug where struct initialization is incorrectly elided.
> 
> Patch 2 uses the improved unaligned_uint16_t type in __rte_raw_cksum
> to enable compiler optimizations while maintaining correctness across
> all architectures (including strict-alignment platforms).
> 
> Performance results show significant improvements (40% for small
> buffers,
> up to 8x for larger buffers) on Intel Xeon with Clang 18.1.
