在x86中，你可以使用sse4位操作指令来提高速度。

//assume input is in eax
mov    ecx,31      
popcnt edx,eax   //cycle 1
lzcnt  eax,eax   //cycle 2
sub    ecx,eax
mov    eax,1
cmp    edx,1     //cycle 3
jle @done        //cycle 4 - popcnt says its a power of 2, return input unchanged
shl    eax,cl    //cycle 5
@done: rep ret   //cycle 5

在c中，您可以使用匹配的intrinsic。

或者无跳转，通过避免跳转导致的错误预测来加快速度，但通过延长依赖链来减慢速度。计时，看看哪种代码最适合您。

//assume input is in eax
mov    ecx,31
popcnt edx,eax    //cycle 1
lzcnt  eax,eax
sub    ecx,eax
mov    eax,1      //cycle 2
cmp    edx,1
mov    edx,0     //cycle 3 
cmovle ecx,edx   //cycle 4 - ensure eax does not change
shl    eax,cl    
@done: rep ret   //cycle 5

如果你需要OpenGL相关的东西:

/* Compute the nearest power of 2 number that is 
 * less than or equal to the value passed in. 
 */
static GLuint 
nearestPower( GLuint value )
{
    int i = 1;

    if (value == 0) return -1;      /* Error! */
    for (;;) {
         if (value == 1) return i;
         else if (value == 3) return i*4;
         value >>= 1; i *= 2;
    }
}

unsigned long upper_power_of_two(unsigned long v)
{
    v--;
    v |= v >> 1;
    v |= v >> 2;
    v |= v >> 4;
    v |= v >> 8;
    v |= v >> 16;
    v++;
    return v;

}

    return 1UL <<(1 +i);
#endif
}

如果你不想冒险进入未定义行为的领域，输入值必须在1到2^63之间。宏在编译时设置常量也很有用。

这是我用c语言的解决方案，希望能有所帮助!

int next_power_of_two(int n) {
    int i = 0;
    for (--n; n > 0; n >>= 1) {
        i++;
    }
    return 1 << i;
}

假设你有一个好的编译器&它可以做bit twiddling在这一点上我以上，但无论如何这是工作!!
