Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/3] riscv: optimized memcpy

Hi Matteo,

Have you tried Glibc generic implementation code?
ref: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arch/20190629053641.3iBfk9-I_D29cDp9yJnIdIg7oMtHNZlDmhLQPTumhEc@z/#t

If Glibc codes have the same performance in your hardware, then you
could give a generic implementation first.

The current Linux generic implementation is so simple in lib/string.c:
#ifndef __HAVE_ARCH_MEMCPY
/**
 * memcpy - Copy one area of memory to another
 * @dest: Where to copy to
 * @src: Where to copy from
 * @count: The size of the area.
 *
 * You should not use this function to access IO space, use memcpy_toio()
 * or memcpy_fromio() instead.
 */
void *memcpy(void *dest, const void *src, size_t count)
{
        char *tmp = dest;
        const char *s = src;

        while (count--)
                *tmp++ = *s++;
        return dest;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(memcpy);
#endif
