//
//
// 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.
//
