I don't think it is the same for xb_find_next_bit() with set == 0.

+ unsigned long ebit = bit + 2;
+
+ if (ebit >= BITS_PER_LONG)
+ continue;

+ ret = find_next_zero_bit(&tmp, BITS_PER_LONG,
+ ebit);
+ if (ret < BITS_PER_LONG)
+ return ret - 2 + IDA_BITMAP_BITS * index;

What I'm saying is that find_next_zero_bit() will not be called if you do
"if (ebit >= BITS_PER_LONG) continue;" before calling find_next_zero_bit().

When scanning "0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001",
"bit < BITS_PER_LONG - 2" case finds "0" in this word but
"bit >= BITS_PER_LONG - 2" case finds "0" in next word or segment.

I can't understand why this is correct behavior. It is too much puzzling.


OK, I'll post out a version without the exceptional path.

Best,
