[PATCH 4/*] Generic string memchr and strnlen
- From: OndÅej BÃlka <neleai at seznam dot cz>

- Subject: [PATCH 4/*] Generic string memchr and strnlen
- Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none
- References: <20150527060121 dot GA19105 at domone> <20150527090717 dot GA27814 at domone> <20150527091858 dot GC27814 at domone>
Here we first deal with functions that use size bound.
Main technical complication is pointer wraparound for large n so it
needs to be handled accordingly. Otherwise its almost same as rawmemchr.
As I wrote before that we could optimize memchr(x,0,n) to strnlen
opposite is also true. Here strnlen uses memchr and lets gcc simply
that.
Comments?
* string/memchr.c: Use skeleton.
* string/strnlen.c: Likewise.

- bytes in the longword in question are equal to c. We first use an xor

- four* bytes in longword1 is zero.
-
- We compute tmp =
- ((longword1 - repeated_one) & ~longword1) & (repeated_one << 7).
- That is, we perform the following operations:
- 1. Subtract repeated_one.
- 2. & ~longword1.
- 3. & a mask consisting of 0x80 in every byte.
- Consider what happens in each byte:
- - If a byte of longword1 is zero, step 1 and 2 transform it into 0xff,
- and step 3 transforms it into 0x80. A carry can also be propagated
- to more significant bytes.
- - If a byte of longword1 is nonzero, let its lowest 1 bit be at
- position k (0 <= k <= 7); so the lowest k bits are 0. After step 1,
- the byte ends in a single bit of value 0 and k bits of value 1.
- After step 2, the result is just k bits of value 1: 2^k - 1. After
- step 3, the result is 0. And no carry is produced.
- So, if longword1 has only non-zero bytes, tmp is zero.
- Whereas if longword1 has a zero byte, call j the position of the least
- significant zero byte. Then the result has a zero at positions 0, ...,
- j-1 and a 0x80 at position j. We cannot predict the result at the more
- significant bytes (positions j+1..3), but it does not matter since we
- already have a non-zero bit at position 8*j+7.
-
- So, the test whether any byte in longword1 is zero is equivalent to
- testing whether tmp is nonzero. */

-
- 1) Is this safe? Will it catch all the zero bytes?
- Suppose there is a byte with all zeros. Any carry bits
- propagating from its left will fall into the hole at its
- least significant bit and stop. Since there will be no
- carry from its most significant bit, the LSB of the
- byte to the left will be unchanged, and the zero will be
- detected.
-
- 2) Is this worthwhile? Will it ignore everything except
- zero bytes? Suppose every byte of LONGWORD has a bit set
- somewhere. There will be a carry into bit 8. If bit 8
- is set, this will carry into bit 16. If bit 8 is clear,
- one of bits 9-15 must be set, so there will be a carry
- into bit 16. Similarly, there will be a carry into bit
- 24. If one of bits 24-30 is set, there will be a carry
- into bit 31, so all of the hole bits will be changed.
-
- The one misfire occurs when bits 24-30 are clear and bit
- 31 is set; in this case, the hole at bit 31 is not
- changed. If we had access to the processor carry flag,
- we could close this loophole by putting the fourth hole
- at bit 32!
-
- So it ignores everything except 128's, when they're aligned
- properly. */
