is the fastest way to search for '\0'. Otherwise use memchr with an infinite
size. This is 3x faster on benchtests for large sizes. Passes GLIBC tests.
* sysdeps/aarch64/rawmemchr.S (__rawmemchr): New file.
* sysdeps/aarch64/strlen.S (__strlen): Change to __strlen to avoid PLT.
for nul bytes which reverts to separate loop when a non-ASCII char is encountered.
Speedup on test-strlen is ~10%, long ASCII strings are processed ~60% faster,
and on random tests it is ~80% better.
This patch moves the AArch64 port to the main sysdeps hierarchy. The
move is essentially:
git mv ports/sysdeps/aarch64 sysdeps/aarch64
git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64 sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64
The README is updated and I've updated ChangeLog.aarch64 along the
lines of the ARM move. The AArch64 build has been tested to confirm
that there were no changes in objdump -dr output or the shared
objects.
