It seems strchr() and strrchr() are used more often than index() and
rindex(). Therefore, simply migrate all kernel code to use it.
For the XFS code, remove an empty line to make the code identical to
the code in the Linux kernel.
It was only used by ufs and ext2 and I have really strong doubts that
there are other pieces of code that also use this function. If it turns
out that external drivers use this code as well, I'd be happy to migrate
or revert.
Bump __FreeBSD_version while there.
It seems two of the file system drivers we have in the tree, namely ufs
and ext3, use a function called `skpc()'. The meaning of this function
does not seem to be documented in FreeBSD, but it turns out one needs to
be a VAX programmer to understand what it does.
SPKC is an instruction on the VAX that does the opposite of memchr(). It
searches for the non-equal character. Add a new function called
memcchr() to the tree that has the following advantages over skpc():
- It has a name that makes more sense than skpc(). Just like strcspn()
matches the complement of strspn(), memcchr() is the complement of
memchr().
- It is faster than skpc(). Similar to our strlen() in libc, it compares
entire words, instead of single bytes. It seems that for this routine
this yields a sixfold performance increase on amd64.
- It has a man page.
during boot.
Change the last argument of gets() to indicate a visibility flag and add
definitions for the numerical constants. Except for the value 2, gets()
will behave exactly the same, so existing consumers shouldn't break. We
only use it in two places, though.

When copying big structures, LLVM generates calls to memmove(), because
it may not be able to figure out whether structures overlap. This caused
linker errors to occur. memmove() is now implemented using bcopy().
Ideally it would be the other way around, but that can be solved in the
future. On ARM we don't do add anything, because it already has
memmove().

longer do we require SCTP to be in the kernel for the
lib to be able to handle SCTP. We do this by moving
the CRC32c checksum into libkern/crc32.c and then adjusting
all routines to use the common methods. Note that this
will improve the performance of iSCSI since they were
using the old single 256 bit table lookup versus the
slicing 8 algorithm (which gives a 4x speed up in
CRC32c calculation :-D)

and bcmp are not the same thing. 'man bcmp' states that the return is
"non-zero" if the two byte strings are not identical. Where as,
'man memcmp' states that the return is the "difference between the
first two differing bytes (treated as unsigned char values" if the
two byte strings are not identical.
So provide a proper memcmp(9), but it is a C implementation not a tuned
assembly implementation. Therefore bcmp(9) should be preferred over memcmp(9).

Once apon a time, gcc promised not to optimize away timing loops, but
gcc started optimizing away the call to a null function in the timing
loop here some time between gcc-3.3.3 and gcc-3.4.6, and it started
optimizing away the timing loop itself some time between gcc-3.4.6

- comment current index() and rindex() functions, as these serve the same
functionality as, respectively, strchr() and strrchr() from userland;
- add inlined version of strchr() and strrchr(), as we tend to use them more
often;
- remove str[r]chr() definitions from ZFS code;

- Prefer '_' to ' ', as it results in more easily parsed results in
memory monitoring tools such as vmstat.
- Remove punctuation that is incompatible with using memory type names
as file names, such as '/' characters.
- Disambiguate some collisions by adding subsystem prefixes to some
memory types.
- Generally prefer lower case to upper case.
- If the same type is defined in multiple architecture directories,
attempt to use the same name in additional cases.
Not all instances were caught in this change, so more work is required to
finish this conversion. Similar changes are required for UMA zone names.
I copied strcasecmp() from userland to the kernel and it didn't worked!
I started to debug the problem and I find out that this line:
while (tolower(*us1) == tolower(*us2++)) {
was adding _3_ bytes to 'us2' pointer. Am I loosing my minds here?!...
No, in-kernel tolower() is a macro which uses its argument three times.
Bad tolower(9), no cookie.
We must not increase a capability of buffer size here,
because codes which call these functions expect that dst and src
are the same size.
This will cause problem when someone convert a character whose
length is different between charsets on smbfs which was changed
to use xlat16 converter.
