// Inline functions for memory copy and fill.

// HeapWordSize (the size of class HeapWord) is 8 Bytes (the size of a
// pointer variable), since we always run the _LP64 model. As a consequence,
// HeapWord* memory ranges are always assumed to be doubleword-aligned,
// having a size which is an integer multiple of HeapWordSize.
//
// Dealing only with doubleword-aligned doubleword units has important
// positive performance and data access consequences. Many of the move
// instructions perform particularly well under these circumstances.
// Data access is "doubleword-concurrent", except for MVC and XC.
// Furthermore, data access can be forced to be sequential (MVCL and MVCLE)
// by use of the special padding byte 0xb1, where required. For copying,
// we use padding byte 0xb0 to prevent the D-cache from being polluted.
//
// On z/Architecture, gcc optimizes memcpy into a series of MVC instructions.
// This is optimal, even if just one HeapWord is copied. However, MVC
// copying is not atomic, i.e. not "doubleword concurrent" by definition.
//
// If the -mmvcle compiler option is specified, memcpy translates into
// code such that the entire memory range is copied or preset with just
// one MVCLE instruction.
//
// *to = *from is transformed into a MVC instruction already with -O1.
// Thus, for atomic copy operations, (inline) assembler code is required
// to guarantee atomic data accesses.
//
// For large (len >= MVCLEThreshold) chunks of memory, we exploit
// special H/W support of z/Architecture:
// 1) copy short piece of memory to page-align address(es)
// 2) copy largest part (all contained full pages) of memory using mvcle instruction.
//    z/Architecture processors have special H/W support for page-aligned storage
//    where len is an int multiple of page size. In that case, up to 4 cache lines are
//    processed in parallel and L1 cache is not polluted.
// 3) copy the remaining piece of memory.
//
//  Measurement classifications:
//  very rare - <=     10.000 calls AND <=     1.000 usec elapsed
//       rare - <=    100.000 calls AND <=    10.000 usec elapsed
//       some - <=  1.000.000 calls AND <=   100.000 usec elapsed
//       freq - <= 10.000.000 calls AND <= 1.000.000 usec elapsed
//  very freq - >  10.000.000 calls OR  >  1.000.000 usec elapsed
