91 1) Is this safe? Will it catch all the zero bytes?
92 Suppose there is a byte with all zeros. Any carry bits
93 propagating from its left will fall into the hole at its
94 least significant bit and stop. Since there will be no
95 carry from its most significant bit, the LSB of the
96 byte to the left will be unchanged, and the zero will be
97 detected.
98
99 2) Is this worthwhile? Will it ignore everything except
100 zero bytes? Suppose every byte of LONGWORD has a bit set
101 somewhere. There will be a carry into bit 8. If bit 8
102 is set, this will carry into bit 16. If bit 8 is clear,
103 one of bits 9-15 must be set, so there will be a carry
104 into bit 16. Similarly, there will be a carry into bit
105 24. If one of bits 24-30 is set, there will be a carry
106 into bit 31, so all of the hole bits will be changed.
107
108 The one misfire occurs when bits 24-30 are clear and bit
109 31 is set; in this case, the hole at bit 31 is not
110 changed. If we had access to the processor carry flag,
111 we could close this loophole by putting the fourth hole
112 at bit 32!
113
114 So it ignores everything except 128's, when they're aligned
115 properly.
116
117 3) But wait! Aren't we looking for C as well as zero?
118 Good point. So what we do is XOR LONGWORD with a longword,
119 each of whose bytes is C. This turns each byte that is C
120 into a zero. */
