strcmp.S contained invalid guard for code that used barrel-shifter optional
instruction - it was checking for !ARC601 instead of whether barrel shifter
is present. While it is true that ARC601 doesn't have barrel shifter, so
does some other ARC EM configurations.

Add a simple rawmemchr implementation. Use strlen for rawmemchr(s, '\0') as it is the
fastest way to search for '\0', and use memchr with an infinite size for other cases.
This is 3x faster for large sizes.

Newlib defines defaults for internal types via <sys/_types.h> and uses
<machine/_types.h> to let targets define their own type if necessary.
Previously for example
#ifndef __dev_t_defined
typedef short __dev_t;
#endif
However, the __*_t_defined pattern conflicts with the glibc type guard
pattern for user types, e.g. dev_t in this example. Introduce a
__machine_*_t_defined pattern for internal types (defined by
<machine/_types.h>, used by <sys/_types.h>). For example
#ifndef __machine_dev_t_defined
typedef short __dev_t;
#endif

The patch adds strlen.S to contain the complementary preprocessor
logic to strlen-stub.c intended to provide #inclusion of alternative
.S implementations.
Initially we just include the existing strlen-armv7.S implementation.
We rewrite _ISA_ARMV7 in both strlen.S and strlen-stub.c to use the
underlying existing underlying defintion from arm_asm.h in order to
avoide including that file, this is in effect the first step towards a
move to ACLE predefines only.

ARM newlib has various strcmp implementations that use .cfi_*
directives to generate unwind information.
The effect of this is that the generated objects contain .eh_frame
sections. However, ARM uses its own unwind info format, not
.eh_frame, which is generated by ARM-specific directives, not .cfi_*.
The .eh_frame sections are useless, but also not removed by strip and
may be loaded into memory at runtime.
This patch fixes this by using .cfi_sections .debug_frame (as in
glibc) so that the directives generate .debug_frame instead.
.debug_frame is useful for the debugger, can be removed by strip, and
is not loaded into memory at runtime.

The patch cleans up the auto configury mechanism used to select
different implementations of memchr for various architecture versions.
The approach here is to remove the selection of memchr within automake
and instead use complimentary logic in memchr-stub.c and memchr.S to
choose between the gerneric memchr.c implementation or one of the
architecture specific implementations.
This patch also changes the selection criteria inline with the
previous proposal here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/newlib/2015/msg00752.html
but using the ACLE predefines.
Regressed for armv7-a armv5 armv8-a, correct selection of memcpy

This revised patch flips the remaining preprocessor logic in
memcpy-stub.c to use ACLE defines as requested in the previous review
and removes the now disused HAVE_ARMV7A and HAVE_ARMV8A configure.in
support.
The newlib configury logic that detects architecture version and
chooses an appropriate memcpy implementation does not consider
ARMv8-a.
This patch adds configury logic to detect ARMv8-a along with the
associated changes in Makefile.am and memcpy.
Hi!
I've got the situation, that the function strlen() occurs twice in libc.a
(building newlib for ARM-V7a and Size-Optimized).
In newlib/libc/machine/arm/strlen.c there are the pre-processor stetements ...
#if defined (__OPTIMIZE_SIZE__) || defined (PREFER_SIZE_OVER_SPEED) || \
(defined (__thumb__) && !defined (__thumb2__))
/*...*/
#else
#if !(defined(_ISA_ARM_7) || defined(__ARM_ARCH_6T2__))
/*...*/
#endif
and in newlib/libc/machine/arm/strlen-armv7.S the "exclude" begins with
/* NOTE: This ifdef MUST match the ones in arm/strlen.c
We fallback to the one in arm/strlen.c for size optimised or
for older architectures. */
#if defined(_ISA_ARM_7) || defined(__ARM_ARCH_6T2__) && \
!(defined (__OPTIMIZE_SIZE__) || defined (PREFER_SIZE_OVER_SPEED) || \
(defined (__thumb__) && !defined (__thumb2__)))
But this is not completely contrary to arm/strlen.c (see above)!
To fix the logical statement in arm/strlen-armv7.S there are parentheses needed

This is an optimized memset for AArch64. Memset is split into 4 main
cases: small sets of up to 16 bytes, medium of 16..96 bytes which are
fully unrolled. Large memsets of more than 96 bytes align the
destination and use an unrolled loop processing 64 bytes per
iteration. Memsets of zero of more than 256 use the dc zva
instruction, and there are faster versions for the common ZVA sizes 64
or 128. STP of Q registers is used to reduce codesize without loss of
performance.

This is an optimized memcpy for AArch64. Copies are split into 3 main
cases: small copies of up to 16 bytes, medium copies of 17..96 bytes
which are fully unrolled. Large copies of more than 96 bytes align
the destination and use an unrolled loop processing 64 bytes per
iteration. In order to share code with memmove, small and medium
copies read all data before writing, allowing any kind of overlap. On
a random copy test memcpy is 40.8% faster on A57 and 28.4% on A53.
This is an optimized memmove for AArch64. All copies of up to 96
bytes and all backward copies are done by the new memcpy. The only
remaining case is large forward copies which are done in the same way
as the memcpy loop, but copying from the end rather than the start.
