Subject: fast string inline routines (asm)
Sender: hackers-owner@FreeBSD.org
Precedence: bulk

In the djgpp list a discussion came up recently about inlining (asm)
fast memcpy/memmove/strcpy and such stuff and someone pointed out that
Linux had these - I cite from Mat Hostetter:

"Subject: Re: A quick way to copy n bytes

NOTE:  if people want to see some good implementations of these routines,
       you should check out the inline asm versions in the Linux headers,
       e.g. linux/asm/string.h.  They are impressive."

I wonder if FreeBSD can have these too.
