ev6-strncpy_from_user.S

/*
 * 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.
