LoongArch With Linux 6.4 Lands Optimizations, New Functionality
![LINUX KERNEL](/assets/categories/linuxkernel.webp)
LoongArch with Linux 6.4 brings optimized memory optimizations, which benefit memset / memcpy / memmoove handling. There is also optimized checksums and CRC32/CRC32C calculations.
The LoongArch back-traces are also now better for "humanization" consumption, providing kernel FPU functions, function error injection support, FTRACE with direct call support, and basic perf tools support.
It's a nice mix of incremental improvements for LoongArch in Linux 6.4 especially the memory optimizations and basic perf tooling support.
The complete list of LoongArch feature patches for Linux 6.4 can be found via this pull request, which has already been merged ahead of the Linux 6.4-rc1 release this weekend.
