1. Refactor files so that all implementations are in the multiarch
directory
- Moved the implementation portion of memset sse2 from memset.S to
multiarch/memset-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 memset-avx2-unaligned-erms.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 (memset-evex-unaligned-erms.S).
3. Add new multiarch/rtld-memset.S that just include the
non-multiarch memset.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.
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%.
