This broke newfs (newfs left some garbage in a bitmap).
The ASM for:
#include <string.h>
int x, foo[100];
main()
{
memset(&foo[0], 0, x);
}
is (at least if you have fixed function alignment):
.file "z.c"
.text
.p2align 2,,3
.globl main
.type main,@function
main:
pushl %ebp
movl %esp, %ebp
pushl %edi
pushl %eax
movl x, %ecx
xorl %eax, %eax
shrl $2, %ecx
movl $foo, %edi
cld
rep
stosl
andl $-16, %esp
<-- the lower bits of `len' should be loaded
near here
testl $2, %edi <-- this seems to be meant to test the 2^1
bit in `len' (not alignment of the pointer
like it actually does). %edi is the wrong
register for holding the bits, since it is
still needed for the pointer.
je .L2
stosw
.L2:
testl $1, %edi <-- similarly for the 2^0 bit.
je .L3
stosb
.L3:
movl -4(%ebp), %edi
leave
ret
.Lfe1:
.size main,.Lfe1-main
.comm foo,400,32
.comm x,4,4
.ident "GCC: (GNU) 3.1 [FreeBSD] 20020509 (prerelease)"
This seems to only result in (len % 3) bytes not being cleared, since gcc
doesn't seem to use the builtin memset unless it knows that the pointer is
aligned. If %edi could be misaligned, then too many bytes would be set.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
