#include <sysdep.h>
/* The algorithm here uses the following techniques:
1) Given a word 'x', we can test to see if it contains any 0 bytes
by subtracting 0x01010101, and seeing if any of the high bits of each
byte changed from 0 to 1. This works because the least significant
0 byte must have had no incoming carry (otherwise it's not the least
significant), so it is 0x00 - 0x01 == 0xff. For all other
byte values, either they have the high bit set initially, or when
1 is subtracted you get a value in the range 0x00-0x7f, none of which
have their high bit set. The expression here is
(x + 0xfefefeff) & ~(x | 0x7f7f7f7f), which gives 0x00000000 when
there were no 0x00 bytes in the word.
2) Given a word 'x', we can test to see _which_ byte was zero by
calculating ~(((x & 0x7f7f7f7f) + 0x7f7f7f7f) | x | 0x7f7f7f7f).
This produces 0x80 in each byte that was zero, and 0x00 in all
the other bytes. The '| 0x7f7f7f7f' clears the low 7 bits in each
byte, and the '| x' part ensures that bytes with the high bit set
produce 0x00. The addition will carry into the high bit of each byte
iff that byte had one of its low 7 bits set. We can then just see
which was the most significant bit set and divide by 8 to find how
many to add to the index.
This is from the book 'The PowerPC Compiler Writer's Guide',
by Steve Hoxey, Faraydon Karim, Bill Hay and Hank Warren.
We deal with strings not aligned to a word boundary by taking the
first word and ensuring that bytes not part of the string
are treated as nonzero. To allow for memory latency, we unroll the
loop a few times, being careful to ensure that we do not read ahead
across cache line boundaries.
Questions to answer:
1) How long are strings passed to strlen? If they're often really long,
we should probably use cache management instructions and/or unroll the
loop more. If they're often quite short, it might be better to use
fact (2) in the inner loop than have to recalculate it.
2) How popular are bytes with the high bit set? If they are very rare,
on some processors it might be useful to use the simpler expression
~((x - 0x01010101) | 0x7f7f7f7f) (that is, on processors with only one
ALU), but this fails when any character has its high bit set. */
/* Some notes on register usage: Under the SVR4 ABI, we can use registers
0 and 3 through 12 (so long as we don't call any procedures) without
saving them. We can also use registers 14 through 31 if we save them.
We can't use r1 (it's the stack pointer), r2 nor r13 because the user
program may expect them to hold their usual value if we get sent
a signal. Integer parameters are passed in r3 through r10.
We can use condition registers cr0, cr1, cr5, cr6, and cr7 without saving
them, the others we must save. */
ENTRY(strlen)
/* On entry, r3 points to the string, and it's left that way.
We use r6 to store 0xfefefeff, and r7 to store 0x7f7f7f7f.
r4 is used to keep the current index into the string; r5 holds
the number of padding bits we prepend to the string to make it
start at a word boundary. r8 holds the 'current' word.
r9-12 are temporaries. r0 is used as a temporary and for discarded
results. */
