30  * Fast strcmp.  This works one int at a time, using aligned pointers
31  * if possible, misaligned pointers if necessary.  To avoid taking
32  * faults from going off the end of a page, the code is careful to go
33  * a byte-at-a-time when a misaligned pointer is near a page boundary.
34  * The code is almost portable, but see the assumptions below.

37 /*
38  * ASSUMPTIONS:
39  * sizeof (int) is not greater than 8.
40  * sizeof (int) is a power of 2.
41  * An int pointer can always be dereferenced even if it is not properly
42  *   aligned (though aligned references are assumed to be faster).
43  * It is OK to assign bogus values to a pointer (in particular, a
44  *   value that is before the beginning of the string) as long as that
45  *   pointer is only used with indices big enough to bring us back into
46  *   the string.
47  * It is OK to reference bytes past the end of a string as long as we
48  *   don't cross a page boundary.
