The tricky part is testing if *any of + the four* bytes in the longword in question are equal to NUL or + c. We first use an xor with repeated_c. This reduces the task + to testing whether *any of the four* bytes in longword1 or + longword2 is zero. + + Let's consider longword1. We compute tmp = + ((longword1 - repeated_one) & ~longword1) & (repeated_one << 7). + That is, we perform the following operations: + 1. Subtract repeated_one. + 2. & ~longword1. + 3. & a mask consisting of 0x80 in every byte. + Consider what happens in each byte: + - If a byte of longword1 is zero, step 1 and 2 transform it into 0xff, + and step 3 transforms it into 0x80. A carry can also be propagated + to more significant bytes. + - If a byte of longword1 is nonzero, let its lowest 1 bit be at + position k (0 <= k <= 7); so the lowest k bits are 0. After step 1, + the byte ends in a single bit of value 0 and k bits of value 1. + After step 2, the result is just k bits of value 1: 2^k - 1. After + step 3, the result is 0. And no carry is produced. + So, if longword1 has only non-zero bytes, tmp is zero. + Whereas if longword1 has a zero byte, call j the position of the least + significant zero byte. Then the result has a zero at positions 0, ..., + j-1 and a 0x80 at position j. We cannot predict the result at the more + significant bytes (positions j+1..3), but it does not matter since we + already have a non-zero bit at position 8*j+7. + + The test whether any byte in longword1 or longword2 is zero is equivalent + to testing whether tmp1 is nonzero or tmp2 is nonzero. We can combine + this into a single test, whether (tmp1 | tmp2) is nonzero. + + This test can read more than one byte beyond the end of a string, + depending on where the terminating NUL is encountered. However, + this is considered safe since the initialization phase ensured + that the read will be aligned, therefore, the read will not cross + page boundaries and will not cause a fault. */ + + while (1) + { + longword longword1 = *longword_ptr ^ repeated_c; + longword longword2 = *longword_ptr; + + if (((((longword1 - repeated_one) & ~longword1) + | ((longword2 - repeated_one) & ~longword2)) + & (repeated_one << 7)) != 0) + break; + longword_ptr++; + } + + char_ptr = (const unsigned char *) longword_ptr; + + /* At this point, we know that one of the sizeof (longword) bytes + starting at char_ptr is == 0 or == c.
