As done in commit 284f42bc77, memcmp
can be used after memchr to avoid the initialization overhead of the
two-way algorithm for the first match. This has shown improvement
>40% for first match.
Improve strstr performance. Strstr tends to be slow because it uses
many calls to memchr and a slow byte loop to scan for the next match.
Performance is significantly improved by using strnlen on larger blocks
and using strchr to search for the next matching character. strcasestr
can also use strnlen to scan ahead, and memmem can use memchr to check
for the next match.
On the GLIBC bench tests the performance gains on Cortex-A72 are:
strstr: +25%
strcasestr: +4.3%
memmem: +18%
On a 256KB dataset strstr performance improves by 67%, strcasestr by 47%.

Locale code, brought in by ISO C functions, calls memmem, which is not
an ISO C function. This isn't an ISO C conformance bug, because all
mem* names are reserved, but glibc practice is not to rely on that
reservation (thus, memmem is only declared in string.h if __USE_GNU
even though ISO C would allow it to be declared unconditionally, for
example). This patch changes that code to use __memmem.
Note: there are uses of memmem elsewhere in glibc that I didn't
change, although it may turn out some of those also need to use
__memmem.
Tested for x86_64 (testsuite, and that disassembly of installed shared
libraries is unchanged by this patch).
[BZ #17585]
* string/memmem.c [!_LIBC] (__memmem): Define to memmem.
(memmem): Rename to __memmem and define as weak alias of
__memmem. Use libc_hidden_weak.
(__memmem): Use libc_hidden_def.
* include/string.h (__memmem): Declare. Use libc_hidden_proto.
* locale/findlocale.c (valid_locale_name): Use __memmem instead of
memmem.

Rewrite string searches to O(n) rather than O(n^2).
* string/str-two-way.h: New file. For linear fixed-allocation
string searching.
* string/memmem.c: New implementation.
* string/strstr.c: New implementation.
* string/strcasestr.c: New implementation.
* sysdeps/posix/getaddrinfo.c (getaddrinfo): Call _res_hconf_init
