Return null if the char is not found. Undefined behavior will occur if the last byte of the source array is in the last two words of the program's allocated memory space. This is so because memchr fetches ahead. Disallowing the fetch ahead would impose a severe performance penalty. Strategy: Fetch the source array by words and scanbyte the words for the char until either a word with the byte is found or max_bytes is exhausted. In the former case, move through the word to find the matching byte and return its memory address. In the latter case, return zero (null). Tactics: 1) Do NOT try to fetch the words in a word aligned manner because, in my judgement, the performance degradation experienced due to non-aligned accesses does NOT outweigh the time and complexity added by the preamble that would be necessary to assure alignment. This is supported by the intuition that most source arrays (even more true of most big source arrays) will be word aligned to begin with. 2) Rather than decrementing max_bytes to zero, I calculate the address of the byte after the last byte of the source array, and quit when the source byte pointer passes that. Refining, actually I calculate the address of the fifth byte after the last byte of the source array, because the source byte pointer is ahead of the actual examination point due to fetch ahead. */ .globl _memchr .globl __memchr .leafproc _memchr, __memchr .align 2 _memchr: #ifndef __PIC lda Lrett,g14 #else lda Lrett-(.+8)(ip),g14 #endif __memchr: mov g14,g13 # preserve return address lda 0xff,g7 # byte extraction mask and g1,g7,g1 # make char an 8-bit ordinal mov 0,g14 # conform to register linkage standard cmpibge 0,g2,Lnot_found # do nothing if max_bytes <= 0 addo 4,g0,g6 # post-increment src word pointer addo g2,g6,g2 # compute ending address from start and len ld (g0),g4 # fetch first word shlo 8,g1,g3 # broadcast the char to four bytes or g1,g3,g3 shlo 16,g3,g5 or g3,g5,g3 Lsearch_for_word_with_char: mov g4,g5 # keep a copy of word scanbyte g3,g5 # check for byte with char ld (g6),g4 # fetch next word of src bo Lsearch_for_char # branch if null found addo 4,g6,g6 # post-increment src word pointer cmpobge g2,g6,Lsearch_for_word_with_char # branch if max_bytes > 3 Lnot_found: mov 0,g0 # char not found.
