+ * a successful copy).  There is also some rather minor exception setup

+ *
+ * Inputs:
+ *	length in $0
+ *	destination address in $6
+ *	exception pointer in $7
+ *	return address in $28 (exceptions expect it there)
+ *
+ * Outputs:
+ *	bytes left to copy in $0
+ *
+ * Clobbers:
+ *	$1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$6
+ *
+ * Much of the information about 21264 scheduling/coding comes from:
+ *	Compiler Writer's Guide for the Alpha 21264
+ *	abbreviated as 'CWG' in other comments here
+ *	ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/info/semiconductor/literature/dsc-library.html
+ * Scheduling notation:
+ *	E	- either cluster
+ *	U	- upper subcluster; U0 - subcluster U0; U1 - subcluster U1
+ *	L	- lower subcluster; L0 - subcluster L0; L1 - subcluster L1
+ * Try not to change the actual algorithm if possible for consistency.
+ * Determining actual stalls (other than slotting) doesn't appear to be easy to do.
+ * From perusing the source code context where this routine is called, it is
+ * a fair assumption that significant fractions of entire pages are zeroed, so
+ * it's going to be worth the effort to hand-unroll a big loop, and use wh64.
+ * ASSUMPTION:
+ *	The believed purpose of only updating $0 after a store is that a signal
+ *	may come along during the execution of this chunk of code, and we don't
+ *	want to leave a hole (and we also want to avoid repeating lots of work)

+
+/* The following comparison of this routine vs the normal copy_page.S
+   was written by an unnamed ev6 hardware designer and forwarded to me
+   via Steven Hobbs <hobbs@steven.zko.dec.com>.
+ 
+   First Problem: STQ overflows.
+   -----------------------------
+
+	It would be nice if EV6 handled every resource overflow efficiently,
+	but for some it doesn't.  Including store queue overflows.  It causes
+	a trap and a restart of the pipe.
+
+	To get around this we sometimes use (to borrow a term from a VSSAD
+	researcher) "aeration".  The idea is to slow the rate at which the
+	processor receives valid instructions by inserting nops in the fetch
+	path.  In doing so, you can prevent the overflow and actually make
+	the code run faster.  You can, of course, take advantage of the fact
+	that the processor can fetch at most 4 aligned instructions per cycle.
+
+	I inserted enough nops to force it to take 10 cycles to fetch the
+	loop code.  In theory, EV6 should be able to execute this loop in
+	9 cycles but I was not able to get it to run that fast -- the initial
+	conditions were such that I could not reach this optimum rate on
+	(chaotic) EV6.  I wrote the code such that everything would issue
+	in order. 
+
+   Second Problem: Dcache index matches.
+   -------------------------------------
+
+	If you are going to use this routine on random aligned pages, there
+	is a 25% chance that the pages will be at the same dcache indices.
+	This results in many nasty memory traps without care.
+
+	The solution is to schedule the prefetches to avoid the memory
+	conflicts.  I schedule the wh64 prefetches farther ahead of the
+	read prefetches to avoid this problem.
+
+   Third Problem: Needs more prefetching.
+   --------------------------------------
+
+	In order to improve the code I added deeper prefetching to take the
+	most advantage of EV6's bandwidth.
+
+	I also prefetched the read stream. Note that adding the read prefetch
+	forced me to add another cycle to the inner-most kernel - up to 11
+	from the original 8 cycles per iteration.  We could improve performance
+	further by unrolling the loop and doing multiple prefetches per cycle.
+
+   I think that the code below will be very robust and fast code for the
+   purposes of copying aligned pages.  It is slower when both source and
+   destination pages are in the dcache, but it is my guess that this is
+   less important than the dcache miss case.  */

+ * Alpha division..
+ */
+
+/*
+ * The alpha chip doesn't provide hardware division, so we have to do it
+ * by hand.  The compiler expects the functions
+ *
+ *	__divqu: 64-bit unsigned long divide
+ *	__remqu: 64-bit unsigned long remainder
+ *	__divqs/__remqs: signed 64-bit
+ *	__divlu/__remlu: unsigned 32-bit
+ *	__divls/__remls: signed 32-bit
+ *
+ * These are not normal C functions: instead of the normal
+ * calling sequence, these expect their arguments in registers
+ * $24 and $25, and return the result in $27. Register $28 may
+ * be clobbered (assembly temporary), anything else must be saved. 
+ *
+ * In short: painful.
+ *
+ * This is a rather simple bit-at-a-time algorithm: it's very good
+ * at dividing random 64-bit numbers, but the more usual case where
+ * the divisor is small is handled better by the DEC algorithm
+ * using lookup tables. This uses much less memory, though, and is
+ * nicer on the cache.. Besides, I don't know the copyright status
+ * of the DEC code.

+/*
+ * arch/alpha/lib/ev6-memset.S
+ *
+ * This is an efficient (and relatively small) implementation of the C library
+ * "memset()" function for the 21264 implementation of Alpha.
+ *
+ * 21264 version  contributed by Rick Gorton <rick.gorton@alpha-processor.com>
+ *
+ * Much of the information about 21264 scheduling/coding comes from:
+ *	Compiler Writer's Guide for the Alpha 21264
+ *	abbreviated as 'CWG' in other comments here
+ *	ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/info/semiconductor/literature/dsc-library.html
+ * Scheduling notation:
+ *	E	- either cluster
+ *	U	- upper subcluster; U0 - subcluster U0; U1 - subcluster U1
+ *	L	- lower subcluster; L0 - subcluster L0; L1 - subcluster L1
+ * The algorithm for the leading and trailing quadwords remains the same,
+ * however the loop has been unrolled to enable better memory throughput,
+ * and the code has been replicated for each of the entry points: __memset
+ * and __memsetw to permit better scheduling to eliminate the stalling
+ * encountered during the mask replication.
+ * A future enhancement might be to put in a byte store loop for really
+ * small (say < 32 bytes) memset()s.  Whether or not that change would be
+ * a win in the kernel would depend upon the contextual usage.
+ * WARNING: Maintaining this is going to be more work than the above version,
+ * as fixes will need to be made in multiple places.  The performance gain
+ * is worth it.

+ * arch/alpha/lib/ev6-strncpy_from_user.S
+ * 21264 version contributed by Rick Gorton <rick.gorton@alpha-processor.com>
+ *
+ * Just like strncpy except in the return value:
+ *
+ * -EFAULT       if an exception occurs before the terminator is copied.
+ * N             if the buffer filled.
+ *
+ * Otherwise the length of the string is returned.
+ *
+ * Much of the information about 21264 scheduling/coding comes from:
+ *	Compiler Writer's Guide for the Alpha 21264
+ *	abbreviated as 'CWG' in other comments here
+ *	ftp.digital.com/pub/Digital/info/semiconductor/literature/dsc-library.html
+ * Scheduling notation:
+ *	E	- either cluster
+ *	U	- upper subcluster; U0 - subcluster U0; U1 - subcluster U1
+ *	L	- lower subcluster; L0 - subcluster L0; L1 - subcluster L1
+ * A bunch of instructions got moved and temp registers were changed
+ * to aid in scheduling.  Control flow was also re-arranged to eliminate
+ * branches, and to provide longer code sequences to enable better scheduling.
+ * A total rewrite (using byte load/stores for start & tail sequences)
+ * is desirable, but very difficult to do without a from-scratch rewrite.
+ * Save that for the future.

+ * Copy a null-terminated string from SRC to DST.

+ * This is an internal routine used by strcpy, stpcpy, and strcat.
+ * As such, it uses special linkage conventions to make implementation

+ * On input:

+ *	a0 = DST
+ *	a1 = SRC
+ *
+ * On output:
+ *	t12 = bitmask (with one bit set) indicating the last byte written
+ *	a0  = unaligned address of the last *word* written
+ *
+ * Furthermore, v0, a3-a5, t11, and t12 are untouched.
+ *
+ * Much of the information about 21264 scheduling/coding comes from:
