[PATCH] Use unsigned int types for a faster bsearch
This patch avoids arithmetic on 'signed' types that are slower than 'unsigned'. This saves space and cpu cycles. size of kernel/sys.o before the patch (gcc-3.4.5) text data bss dec hex filename 10924 252 4 11180 2bac kernel/sys.o size of kernel/sys.o after the patch text data bss dec hex filename 10903 252 4 11159 2b97 kernel/sys.o I noticed that gcc-4.1.0 (from Fedora Core 5) even uses idiv instruction for (a+b)/2 if a and b are signed.
