* Blackfin: strncpy: fix handling of zero lengthsSteven Miao2011-06-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | The jump to 4f will cause the NUL padding loop to run at least one time, so if string length is zero just jump to the end. Otherwise we wrongly write one NUL byte when size==0. Signed-off-by: Steven Miao <realmz6@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
* Blackfin: optimize strncpy a bitRobin Getz2010-05-221-13/+46
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a little strncpy optimization which can easily cut boot time by 20%. When the kernel is booting with initramfs, it builds up the filesystem from a cpio archive by calling strncpy_from_user() via fs/namei.c's do_getname() on every file in the archive (which can be lots) with a length of PATH_MAX (1024). This causes the dest of the strncpy to be padded with many NUL bytes. This optimization mostly causes these NUL bytes to be padded with a call to memset() which is already optimized for filling memory quickly, but the hardware loop helps a little bit as well. Boot time measured with 'loglevel=0' so UART speed doesn't get in the way. Signed-off-by: Robin Getz <robin.getz@analog.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
* Blackfin: move string functions to normal lib/ assemblyRobin Getz2010-05-221-0/+52
Since 'extern inline' doesn't work correctly in the context of the Linux kernel (too many overriding defines), move the string functions to normal lib/ assembly files (like the existing mem funcs). This avoids the forced inline all over the kernel and allows us to place them constantly in L1. This also avoids some module failures when gcc inserts calls to string functions but the kernel build system doesn't fully consult the library archives.
