CVS commit: src/common/lib/libc/arch/x86_64/string



Module Name:    src
Committed By:   dsl
Date:           Sun Nov 22 17:25:47 UTC 2009

Modified Files:
        src/common/lib/libc/arch/x86_64/string: bcopy.S

Log Message:
Align to the destination buffer.
This probably costs 1 clock (on modern cpus) in the normal case.
But gives a big benefit when the destination is misaligned.
In particular when the source has the same misalignment - although
that may not be a gain on Nehalem!
Fixes PR/35535
