Specifically for dividing by small constants (< 16). We're working on a
small MIPS-like network processor that has no MUL/DIV unit, and need to
be able to do a *fast* mod by small numbers.


Are there any references that discuss code sequences for dividing (or
specifically in our case, remaindering) integers by small constants (for
any processor that doesn't have a MUL/DIV unit)?


Thanks,
