* This file describes reciprocical division.

|
|
* This optimizes the (A/B) problem, when A and B are two u32
|
|
* and B is a known value (but not known at compile time)
|
|
*
|
|
* The math principle used is :
|
|
* Let RECIPROCAL_VALUE(B) be (((1LL << 32) + (B - 1))/ B)
|
|
* Then A / B = (u32)(((u64)(A) * (R)) >> 32)
|
|
*
|
|
* This replaces a divide by a multiply (and a shift), and
|
|
* is generally less expensive in CPU cycles.
