Subject: Re: [PATCH] add memcmpeq: memcmp that returns length of first
mismatch
Pedro Falcato dixit:

It’s very much true, e.g. it breaks atomicity (ok, not relevant
*here*, but in general).
AIUI, even modern amd64 chips of all vendors are reverting to
optimising rep movsb/lodsb instead again, for stringops.
Of course the status on other architectures should be sufficient to
not use unaligned accesses.
