Although the Enhanced REP MOVSB/STOSB (ERMS) implementations of memmove,
memcpy, mempcpy and memset aren't used by the current processors, this
patch adds Prefer_ERMS check in memmove, memcpy, mempcpy and memset so
that they can be used in the future.

Since the new SSE2/AVX2 memcpy/memmove are faster than the previous ones,
we can remove the previous SSE2/AVX2 memcpy/memmove and replace them with
the new ones.
No change in IFUNC selection if SSE2 and AVX2 memcpy/memmove weren't used
before. If SSE2 or AVX2 memcpy/memmove were used, the new SSE2 or AVX2
memcpy/memmove optimized with Enhanced REP MOVSB will be used for
processors with ERMS. The new AVX512 memcpy/memmove will be used for
processors with AVX512 which prefer vzeroupper.
Since the new SSE2 memcpy/memmove are faster than the previous default
memcpy/memmove used in libc.a and ld.so, we also remove the previous
default memcpy/memmove and make them the default memcpy/memmove, except
that non-temporal store isn't used in ld.so.
Together, it reduces the size of libc.so by about 6 KB and the size of
ld.so by about 2 KB.

The large memcpy micro benchmark in glibc shows that there is a
regression with large data on Haswell machine. non-temporal store in
memcpy on large data can improve performance significantly. This
patch adds a threshold to use non temporal store which is 6 times of
shared cache size. When size is above the threshold, non temporal
store will be used, but avoid non-temporal store if there is overlap
between destination and source since destination may be in cache when
source is loaded.
For size below 8 vector register width, we load all data into registers
and store them together. Only forward and backward loops, which move 4
vector registers at a time, are used to support overlapping addresses.
For forward loop, we load the last 4 vector register width of data and
the first vector register width of data into vector registers before the
loop and store them after the loop. For backward loop, we load the first
4 vector register width of data and the last vector register width of
data into vector registers before the loop and store them after the loop.

Implement x86-64 memset with unaligned store and rep movsb. Support
16-byte, 32-byte and 64-byte vector register sizes. A single file
provides 2 implementations of memset, one with rep stosb and the other
without rep stosb. They share the same codes when size is between 2
times of vector register size and REP_STOSB_THRESHOLD which defaults
to 2KB.
Key features:
1. Use overlapping store to avoid branch.
2. For size <= 4 times of vector register size, fully unroll the loop.
3. For size > 4 times of vector register size, store 4 times of vector
register size at a time.

Implement x86-64 memmove with unaligned load/store and rep movsb.
Support 16-byte, 32-byte and 64-byte vector register sizes. When
size <= 8 times of vector register size, there is no check for
address overlap bewteen source and destination. Since overhead for
overlap check is small when size > 8 times of vector register size,
memcpy is an alias of memmove.
A single file provides 2 implementations of memmove, one with rep movsb
and the other without rep movsb. They share the same codes when size is
between 2 times of vector register size and REP_MOVSB_THRESHOLD which
is 2KB for 16-byte vector register size and scaled up by large vector
register size.
Key features:
1. Use overlapping load and store to avoid branch.
2. For size <= 8 times of vector register size, load all sources into
registers and store them together.
3. If there is no address overlap bewteen source and destination, copy
from both ends with 4 times of vector register size at a time.
4. If address of destination > address of source, backward copy 8 times
of vector register size at a time.
5. Otherwise, forward copy 8 times of vector register size at a time.
6. Use rep movsb only for forward copy. Avoid slow backward rep movsb
by fallbacking to backward copy 8 times of vector register size at a
time.
7. Skip when address of destination == address of source.

Move sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/init-arch.h to sysdeps/x86/init-arch.h
which can be used for both i386 and x86_64.

{memcpy,strcmp}-sse2-unaligned.S aren't needed in ld.so.

To make a strtok faster and improve performance in general we need to do one
additional change.
A comment:
/* It doesn't make sense to send libc-internal strcspn calls through a PLT.
The speedup we get from using SSE4.2 instruction is likely eaten away
by the indirect call in the PLT. */
Does not make sense at all because nobody bothered to check it. Gap
between these implementations is quite big, when haystack is empty a
sse2 is around 40 cycles slower because it needs to populate a lookup
table and difference only increases with size. That is much bigger than
plt slowdown which is few cycles.
Even benchtest show a gap which also may be reverse by branch
misprediction but my internal benchmark shown.

This patch also handles strpbrk which is implemented by including a
x86_64/multiarch/strcspn.S file.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strspn.S: Remove plt indirection.

memcpy with unaligned 256-bit AVX register loads/stores are slow on older
processorsl like Sandy Bridge. This patch adds bit_AVX_Fast_Unaligned_Load
and sets it only when AVX2 is available.
[BZ #17801]
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/init-arch.c (__init_cpu_features):
Set the bit_AVX_Fast_Unaligned_Load bit for AVX2.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/init-arch.h (bit_AVX_Fast_Unaligned_Load):
New.
(index_AVX_Fast_Unaligned_Load): Likewise.
(HAS_AVX_FAST_UNALIGNED_LOAD): Likewise.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memcpy.S (__new_memcpy): Check the
bit_AVX_Fast_Unaligned_Load bit instead of the bit_AVX_Usable bit.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memcpy_chk.S (__memcpy_chk): Likewise.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/mempcpy.S (__mempcpy): Likewise.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/mempcpy_chk.S (__mempcpy_chk): Likewise.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memmove.c (__libc_memmove): Replace
HAS_AVX with HAS_AVX_FAST_UNALIGNED_LOAD.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memmove_chk.c (__memmove_chk): Likewise.
In this patch we take advantage of HSW memory bandwidth, manage to
reduce miss branch prediction by avoiding using branch instructions and
force destination to be aligned with avx instruction.
The CPU2006 403.gcc benchmark indicates this patch improves performance
from 2% to 10%.
* config.h.in (HAVE_AVX2_SUPPORT): New #undef.
* sysdeps/i386/configure.ac: Set HAVE_AVX2_SUPPORT and
config-cflags-avx2.
* sysdeps/x86_64/configure.ac: Likewise.
* sysdeps/i386/configure: Regenerated.
* sysdeps/x86_64/configure: Likewise.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/Makefile (sysdep_routines): Add
memset-avx2 only if config-cflags-avx2 is yes.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/ifunc-impl-list.c (__libc_ifunc_impl_list):
Tests for memset_chk and memset only if HAVE_AVX2_SUPPORT is
defined.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memset.S: Define multiple versions
only if HAVE_AVX2_SUPPORT is defined.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memset_chk.S: Likewise.
This patch adds ifunc tests for x86_64 memset_chk and memset. It also
defines HAS_AVX2 with AVX2_Usable since AVX2 may not be usable even if
processor has AVX2.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/ifunc-impl-list.c (__libc_ifunc_impl_list):
Add tests for memset_chk and memset.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/init-arch.h (HAS_AVX2): Defined
with AVX2_Usable.
In this patch we take advantage of HSW memory bandwidth, manage to
reduce miss branch prediction by avoiding using branch instructions and
force destination to be aligned with avx & avx2 instruction.
The CPU2006 403.gcc benchmark indicates this patch improves performance
from 26% to 59%.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/Makefile: Add memset-avx2.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memset-avx2.S: New file.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memset.S: Likewise.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/memset_chk.S: Likewise.
* sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/rtld-memset.S: Likewise.
Define FEATURE_INDEX_1 and FEATURE_INDEX_MAX as macros
for use by both assembly and C code. This fixes the
-Wundef error for cases where FEATURE_INDEX_1 was not
defined but used the correct value of 0 for an undefined
macro.
