2015-01-09libpayload: Reorder default memcpy, speed up memset and memcmpJulius Werner
The current default memcpy first copies single bytes to align the amount, then copies the rest as full words. In practice, the start of a buffer is much more likely to be word-aligned then the end, and aligned word access are usually more efficient. This patch reorders those accesses to first copy as many full words as possible and then finish the rest with byte accesses to optimize this common case. This fixes a data abort when using USB on ARM without CONFIG_GPL. Due to some limitations of how DMA memory is set up in coreboot on ARM, it currently does not support unaligned accesses. (This could be fixed with a more complicated patch, but it's usually not an issue... unless, of course, your memcpy happens to be braindead). Also add word-aligned accesses to memset and memcmp while I'm at it, and make memcmp's return value standard's compliant.

2013-02-15libpayload: make functions static that are unused outside memory.cRonald G. Minnich
The default_ functions in memory.c are only used to initialize a weak variable. They should not be used outside memory.c. Make them invisible. Remove the declaration from libpayload.h. For real this time. Change-Id: Id54c1fd172c78748f01a958ce4065dd0eb53bbc3 Signed-off-by: Ronald G.

2012-11-07libpayload: Make the symbols in memory.c weak so they can be overridden.Gabe Black
The implementations for various stdlib functions in libc/memory.c are very generic and should work under just about any circumstances. They are unfortunately also very slow. This change makes them weak symbols so that faster versions can be defined on a per architecture basis which will automatically take the place of the slow versions.

2010-04-27Since some people disapprove of white space cleanups mixed in regular commitsStefan Reinauer
while others dislike them being extra commits, let's clean them up once and for all for the existing code. If it's ugly, let it only be ugly once :-) Signed-off-by: Stefan Reinauer <stepan@coresystems.de> Acked-by: Stefan Reinauer <stepan@coresystems.de> git-svn-id: svn://svn.coreboot.org/coreboot/trunk@5507 2b7e53f0-3cfb-0310-b3e9-8179ed1497e1

There was a bit of confusion in the memcpy functions - we could simplify things slightly without having to revert to 8 bit copies on a 32 bit system.
