I used these shell commands:

and then ignored the output, which consisted lines saying "FOO: warning:

I then removed trailing white space from benchtests/bench-pthread-locks.c

Similar to the strcpy P9 optimization, this version uses VSX to improve

This started as a trivial change to Anton's rawmemchr. I got
carried away. This is a hybrid between P8's asympotically
faster 64B checks with extremely efficient small string checks
e.g <64B (and sometimes a little bit more depending on alignment).
The second trick is to align to 64B by running a 48B checking loop
16B at a time until we naturally align to 64B (i.e checking 48/96/144
bytes/iteration based on the alignment after the first 5 comparisons).
This allieviates the need to check page boundaries.
Finally, explicly use the P7 strlen with the runtime loader when building
P9. We need to be cautious about vector/vsx extensions here on P9 only
builds.
This version uses vector instructions and is up to 60% faster on medium
matches and up to 90% faster on long matches, compared to the POWER7
version. A few examples:
__rawmemchr_power9 __rawmemchr_power7
Length 32, alignment 0: 2.27566 3.77765
Length 64, alignment 2: 2.46231 3.51064
Length 1024, alignment 0: 17.3059 32.6678
Add stpcpy support to the POWER9 strcpy. This is up to 40% faster on
small strings and up to 90% faster on long relatively unaligned strings,
compared to the POWER8 version. A few examples:
__stpcpy_power9 __stpcpy_power8
Length 20, alignments in bytes 4/ 4: 2.58246 4.8788
Length 1024, alignments in bytes 1/ 6: 24.8186 47.8528
This version uses VSX store vector with length instructions and is
significantly faster on small strings and relatively unaligned large
strings, compared to the POWER8 version. A few examples:
__strcpy_power9 __strcpy_power8
Length 16, alignments in bytes 0/ 0: 2.52454 4.62695
Length 412, alignments in bytes 4/ 0: 11.6 22.9185
This patch rewrites wcscat using wcslen and wcscpy. This is similar to
the optimization done on strcat by 6e46de42fe.

This patch moves little endian specific POWER9 optimization files to
sysdeps/powerpc/powerpc64/le and creates POWER9 ifunc functions
only for little endian.
On POWER8, unaligned memory accesses to cached memory has little impact
on performance as opposed to its ancestors.
It is disabled by default and will only be available when the tunable

Added strnlen POWER8 otimized for long strings. It delivers
same performance as POWER7 implementation for short strings.
This takes advantage of reasonably performing unaligned loads
and bit permutes to check the first 1-16 bytes until
quadword aligned, then checks in 64 bytes strides until unsafe,
then 16 bytes, truncating the count if need be.
Likewise, the POWER7 code is recycled for less than 32 bytes strings.
