But those strings must be string constants, not actual strings. And gcc (nor any other compiler) will have support for strings of more than 2^32 character in length. So it should be possible to apply the patch. > How does it work on other architectures? Which functions? The generic functions should perform quite good. The copying of constant strings work by moving immedate values which is much faster. -- ---------------. drepper at gnu.org ,-. 1325 Chesapeake Terrace Ulrich Drepper \ ,-------------------' \ Sunnyvale, CA 94089 USA Cygnus Solutions `--' drepper at cygnus.com `------------------------
