 24//
 25// This is an enhanced version of the basic strlen. it includes a combination
 26// of compute zero index (czx), parallel comparisons, speculative loads and
 27// loop unroll using rotating registers.
 28//
 29// General Ideas about the algorithm:
 30//	  The goal is to look at the string in chunks of 8 bytes.
 31//	  so we need to do a few extra checks at the beginning because the
 32//	  string may not be 8-byte aligned. In this case we load the 8byte
 33//	  quantity which includes the start of the string and mask the unused
 34//	  bytes with 0xff to avoid confusing czx.
 35//	  We use speculative loads and software pipelining to hide memory
 36//	  latency and do read ahead safely. This way we defer any exception.
 37//
 38//	  Because we don't want the kernel to be relying on particular
 39//	  settings of the DCR register, we provide recovery code in case
 40//	  speculation fails. The recovery code is going to "redo" the work using
 41//	  only normal loads. If we still get a fault then we generate a
 42//	  kernel panic. Otherwise we return the strlen as usual.
 43//
 44//	  The fact that speculation may fail can be caused, for instance, by
 45//	  the DCR.dm bit being set. In this case TLB misses are deferred, i.e.,
 46//	  a NaT bit will be set if the translation is not present. The normal
 47//	  load, on the other hand, will cause the translation to be inserted
 48//	  if the mapping exists.
 49//
 50//	  It should be noted that we execute recovery code only when we need
 51//	  to use the data that has been speculatively loaded: we don't execute
 52//	  recovery code on pure read ahead data.
 53//
 54// Remarks:
 55//	- the cmp r0,r0 is used as a fast way to initialize a predicate
 56//	  register to 1. This is required to make sure that we get the parallel
 57//	  compare correct.
 58//
 59//	- we don't use the epilogue counter to exit the loop but we need to set
 60//	  it to zero beforehand.
 61//
 62//	- after the loop we must test for Nat values because neither the
 63//	  czx nor cmp instruction raise a NaT consumption fault. We must be
 64//	  careful not to look too far for a Nat for which we don't care.
 65//	  For instance we don't need to look at a NaT in val2 if the zero byte
 66//	  was in val1.
 67//
 68//	- Clearly performance tuning is required.
