關於平方根的計算，在linux核心中也有實現，就像math.h數學庫裡的sqrt這個函式一樣。

      平方根的公式定義:

哈哈，小學生都懂，不解釋不解釋，直接來看程式碼：

#include <stdio.h>
#ifdef CONFIG_64BIT
#define BITS_PER_LONG 64
#else
#define BITS_PER_LONG 32
#endif
/**
 * int_sqrt - rough approximation to sqrt
 * @x: integer of which to calculate the sqrt
 *
 * A very rough approximation to the sqrt() function.
 */
unsigned long int_sqrt(unsigned long x)
{
	unsigned long op, res, one;
	op = x;
	res = 0;
	one = 1UL << (BITS_PER_LONG - 2);
	while (one > op)
		one >>= 2;

	while (one != 0) {
		if (op >= res + one) {
			op = op - (res + one);
			res = res +  2 * one;
		}
		res /= 2;
		one /= 4;
	}
	return res;
}

int main(void)
{
	printf("%d\n",int_sqrt(16))	;
	return 0 ;
}
