--- Comment #4 from H.J. Lu <hjl.tools at gmail dot com> --- (In reply to Wilco from comment #3) > Yes. Ignoring GLIBC internals, mempcpy is used quite infrequently. As a > result not many targets have added highly optimized implementations. The > targets that do have the issue that mempcpy is typically not in the cache > when called, while memcpy is more likely already cached. > FWIW, in x86-64 glibc, memcpy and mempcpy share the same function body: 0000000000000010 <__mempcpy>: 10: 48 89 f8 mov %rdi,%rax 13: 48 01 d0 add %rdx,%rax 16: eb 1b jmp 33 <__memcpy+0x3>
