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