19 /* Fill a block of memory with zeros. Optimized for the Alpha architecture:
21 - memory accessed as aligned quadwords only
22 - destination memory not read unless needed for good cache behaviour
23 - basic blocks arranged to optimize branch prediction for full-quadword
24 aligned memory blocks.
25 - partial head and tail quadwords constructed with byte-mask instructions
27 This is generally scheduled for the EV5 (got to look out for my own
28 interests :-), but with EV4 needs in mind. There *should* be no more
29 stalls for the EV4 than there are for the EV5.
