1. Refactor files so that all implementations are in the multiarch
directory
- Moved the implementation portion of memcmp sse2 from memcmp.S to
multiarch/memcmp-sse2.S
- The non-multiarch file now only includes one of the
implementations in the multiarch directory based on the compiled
ISA level (only used for non-multiarch builds. Otherwise we go
through the ifunc selector).
2. Add ISA level build guards to different implementations.
- I.e memcmp-avx2-movsb.S which is ISA level 3 will only build if
compiled ISA level <= 3. Otherwise there is no reason to include
it as we will always use one of the ISA level 4
implementations (memcmp-evex-movbe.S).
3. Add new multiarch/rtld-{w}memcmp{eq}.S that just include the
non-multiarch {w}memcmp{eq}.S which will in turn select the best
implementation based on the compiled ISA level.
4. Refactor the ifunc selector and ifunc implementation list to use
the ISA level aware wrapper macros that allow functions below the
compiled ISA level (with a guranteed replacement) to be skipped.
Tested with and without multiarch on x86_64 for ISA levels:
{generic, x86-64-v2, x86-64-v3, x86-64-v4}
And m32 with and without multiarch.
Optimize x86-64 memcmp/wmemcmp with AVX2. It uses vector compare as
much as possible. It is as fast as SSE4 memcmp for size <= 16 bytes
and up to 2X faster for size > 16 bytes on Haswell and Skylake. Select
AVX2 memcmp/wmemcmp on AVX2 machines where vzeroupper is preferred and
AVX unaligned load is fast.
NB: It uses TZCNT instead of BSF since TZCNT produces the same result
as BSF for non-zero input. TZCNT is faster than BSF and is executed
as BSF if machine doesn't support TZCNT.
Key features:
1. For size from 2 to 7 bytes, load as big endian with movbe and bswap
to avoid branches.
2. Use overlapping compare to avoid branch.
3. Use vector compare when size >= 4 bytes for memcmp or size >= 8
bytes for wmemcmp.
4. If size is 8 * VEC_SIZE or less, unroll the loop.
5. Compare 4 * VEC_SIZE at a time with the aligned first memory area.
6. Use 2 vector compares when size is 2 * VEC_SIZE or less.
7. Use 4 vector compares when size is 4 * VEC_SIZE or less.
8. Use 8 vector compares when size is 8 * VEC_SIZE or less.
