12 * ISO C memset - set a memory block to a byte value. This function uses fast
13 * string to get better performance than the original function. The code is
14 * simpler and shorter than the original function as well.
20 * rax original destination
22 * The FSRS alternative should be done inline (avoiding the call and
23 * the disgusting return handling), but that would require some help
24 * from the compiler for better calling conventions.
26 * The 'rep stosb' itself is small enough to replace the call, but all
27 * the register moves blow up the code. And two of them are "needed"
28 * only for the return value that is the same as the source input,
29 * which the compiler could/should do much better anyway.
