Similar to x86/sparc/powerpc implementations except: 1) we implement an extremely efficient has_zero()/find_zero() sequence with both prep_zero_mask() and create_zero_mask() no-operations. 2) Our output from prep_zero_mask() differs in that only the lowest eight bits are used to represent the zero bytes nevertheless it can be safely ORed with other similar masks from prep_zero_mask() and forms input to create_zero_mask(), the two fundamental properties prep_zero_mask() must satisfy. Tests on EV67 and EV68 CPUs revealed that the generic code is essentially as fast (to within 0.5% of CPU cycles) of the old Alpha specific code for large quadword-aligned strings, despite the 30% extra CPU instructions executed. In contrast, the generic code for unaligned strings is substantially slower (by more than a factor of 3) than the old Alpha specific code.
