From: Richard Henderson <richard.henderson@linaro.org>

While alpha has the more important string functions in assembly,
there are still a few for find the generic routines are used.

Use the CMPBGE insn, via the builtin, for testing of zeros.  Use a
simplified expansion of __builtin_ctz when the insn isn't available.

Checked on alpha-linux-gnu.

The header split has drifted somewhat since the original: string-fza.h is missing and 
check_mask() seems misplaced.

In particular, from strchrnul,


+  op_t mask = check_mask (find_zero_eq_all (word, repeated_c), s_int);
+  if (mask != 0)
+    return (char *) str + index_first (mask);


We're using the generic find_zero_eq_all, then (correctly, for the moment) the generic 
check_mask, and then incorrectly the alpha-specific index_first.

We want to use an alpha-specific find_zero_eq_all (using cmpbge), an alpha-specific 
check_mask (shifting by bits, not bytes), and an alpha-specific index_first (searching 
only 8 low bits, not a full ctz).

I wonder if it makes sense to introduce a target-specific find_t, making it clear that 
it's not the same type as op_t (for alpha, int instead of unsigned long (uint8_t having 
it's own issues on ancient alpha ev5)).

I think check_mask (possibly renamed shift_find?) should belong in string-fza.h to match 
the implementation therein, or within a new header (possibly along with find_t?).

Anyway, even the current set of headers would work, so long as Alpha implements all of them.

Right, I had to consult the alpha manual to remind that cmpbge sets the lower
8 bits of the target register. And indeed running on qemu-users triggers a lot
of issues.

I think it makes sense, I will add this change.

It also make sense.

A alpha-specific string-fza.h is in fact quite simple, since we do not need to implement
all the function.

I will update the patch with your suggestions.
