Commit Message

Noah Goldstein Aug. 24, 2021, 7:32 p.m. UTC
No bug. This commit optimizes memmove-vec-unaligned.S.

The optimizations are in descending order of importance to the
L(less_vec), L(movsb), the 8x forward/backward loops and various
target alignments that have minimal code size impact.

The L(less_vec) optimizations are to:

    1. Readjust the branch order to either given hotter paths a fall
    through case or have less branches in there way.
    2. Moderately change the size classes to make hot branches hotter
    and thus increase predictability.
    3. Try and minimize branch aliasing to avoid BPU thrashing based
    misses.
    4. 64 byte the prior function entry. This is to avoid cases where
    seemingly unrelated changes end up have severe negative
    performance impacts.

The L(movsb) optimizations are to:

    1. Reduce the number of taken branches needed to determine if
    movsb should be used.
    2. 64 byte align either dst if the CPU has fsrm or if dst and src
    do not 4k alias.
    3. 64 byte align src if the CPU does not have fsrm and dst and src
    do 4k alias.

The 8x forward/backward loop optimizations are to:

    1. Reduce instructions needed for aligning to VEC_SIZE.
    2. Reduce uops and code size of the loops.

All tests in string/ passing.
