Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

This is a conversion of an old bit order reversal CFunction for MM2.

Demo and C source:
Bitorderreversal.zip

I needed it for a project.

Output:

I wonder if you could get it faster by not using pointer indirection in the loop in your C code, or if the compiler already figured that out for you?

Hi Chis,

thanks for your attention! Good find!
You are absolutely right, if you don't use pointer indirection, it's faster (~ 15%)!
I need it to convert around 10,000 integers for a project - in a reasonable time (<500ms). I relied on the smartness of the compiler (Note: Never use pointer indirection in large loops!).

Result:

If you want it really fast then there is an ARM instruction to reverse the bit order in a word RBIT. You will need to include it as an ASM clause in the C source

Hi Peter,

thanks for your suggestion.

But I fear without a template I can't achieve it. The CMM2 source is in this case not very helpful  
RBIT   R7, R8  ; Reverse bit order of value in R8 and write the result to R7.

I've already found this , but I need time to decode that ...
A template on this thread - or anywhere else - would be much appreciated. But I don't want to rush you.

Kind regards
Michael
