riscv: select DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS for efficient unaligned access HW
DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS uses the word-at-a-time API for optimised string
comparisons in the vfs layer.
This patch implements support for load_unaligned_zeropad in much the
same way as has been done for arm64.
Here is the test program and step:
$ cat tt.c
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#define ITERATIONS
1000000
#define PATH "
123456781234567812345678123456781"
int main(void)
{
unsigned long i;
struct stat buf;
for (i = 0; i < ITERATIONS; i++)
stat(PATH, &buf);
return 0;
}
$ gcc -O2 tt.c
$ touch
123456781234567812345678123456781
$ time ./a.out
Per my test on T-HEAD C910 platforms, the above test performance is
improved by about 7.5%.
