;; This code uses a common technique for NULL byte detection inside a word.
;; Details on this technique can be found in:
;; (https://graphics.stanford.edu/~seander/bithacks.html#ZeroInWord)
;
; In sum, this technique allows for detecting a NULL byte inside any given
; amount of bits by performing the following operation
; 		DETECTNULL(X) (((X) - 0x01010101) & ~(X) & 0x80808080) [0]
;
; The code above implements this by setting r8 to a
; 0x01010101... sequence and r1 to a 0x80808080... sequence of
; appropriate length As LIMM are 32 bit only, we need to perform MOVHL
; and ORL [1] operations to have the appropriate 64 bit values in
; place
;
;; Search is done 32 bytes at a time, either with 64 bit loads or 128
;; bit loads If a NULL byte is detected, the position of the double
;; word is encoded in r12, which is then used to adjust r13
;
; r12 is set via bset, which means we can simply use a fls to obtain
; the first match (or ffs depending on the values in bset) [2].  The
; reason for starting at 1 and not 0 is so r12 encodes how many double
; words to go back, and it wouldnt make sense to go back 0 (the NULL
; would be in the next loop iteration).
;
; The first step to take is point r13 to the appropriate double word.
; As the chosen encoded information is how many double words to go
; back, we can simply multiply r12 by 8 and reduce r13 by that amount
; [3]
;
; Then, we need to place the loaded double word containing the first
; NULL byte into a "common" register we can operate on later [4].
;
; To do this without any jumps, we can shift r12 and perform a
; conditional mov based on the carry flag value.  The order is very
; important because the NULL byte can appear in several double words,
; so we want to analyze from last to first.
;
; We can ignore the first asr (which would be asr.f 2, as we started
; r12 on 1) because if r7 isnt the NULL byte, r2 will always be
; overwritten so we can just decide to start at r7, and overwrite it
; if needed.
;
; Now comes the tricky part. In order to obtain the first NULL byte,
; we need to understand the NULL byte detection operation. It is
; explained in depth in the link above but in short, it works by first
; setting the highest bit of each byte to 1, if the corresponding byte
; is either 0 or more than 0x80 Then, separately, it makes the highest
; bit of each byte 1, if the byte is less than 0x80. The last step is
; to AND these two values (this operation is simplified with the SUB,
; BIC and TST instructions).
;
; This means that the evaluated equation result value [5] has zeros
; for all non zero bytes, except for the NULL bytes. Therefore, we can
; simply find the first non zero bit (counting from bit 0) which will
; be inside the position of the first NULL byte.
;
; One thing to note, is that ffs oddly returns 31 if no bit is found,
; setting the zero flag. As r9 is never all 0s at this stage (would
; mean there is no NULL byte and we wouldnt be here) we dont need to
; worry about that. [6]
;
; We can then convert the bit position into the last byte position by
; looking into bits 3 to 5, and shifting 3 bits to the right. This can
; be combined into a single xbful operation. The bottom 000011
; represent shift by 3 and the top 0111 represents the mask (3 to 5
; shifted by 3 is 0 to 2). We dont need to worry about the case where
; ffs does not find a bit, because we know for sure there is at least
; one NULL byte, and therefore one of the highest bits is set to 1 [7]
;
; Finally, we can add the NULL byte position inside the loaded double
; word to r13 and subtract r0 from r13 to obtain the string size [8]
;
;
; Some operations are re-ordered such that register dependency is
; reduced, allowing the CPU to run more instructions in parallel [9]
