Linux kernel source tree
e752058b86
[Why&How] 1. Stack usage is pretty high as fixed31_32 struct is 8 bytes and we have functions with >30 vars on the stack. 2. Optimize gamma calculation by reducing number of calls to dc_fixpt_pow Our X points are divided into 32 regions wth 16 pts each. Each region is 2x the previous, meaning x[i] = 2*x[i-16] for i>=16. Using (2x)^gamma = 2^gamma * x^gamma, we can recursively compute powers of gamma, we just need first 16 pts to start it up. dc_fixpt_pow() is expensive, it computes x^y by doing exp(y*logx) Exp is done by Taylor series approximation, and log by Newton-like approximation that also uses exp internally. In short, it's significantly heavier than run-of-the-mill addition/subtraction/multiply.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
