我正在查看来自 GNU C 库 glibc-2.18 的函数,这是我为 strncmp.c 找到的代码
看着它,我不明白为什么它是这样写的。这个循环展开了吗?为什么不使用 5 或 10 而不是 4?为什么他们这样写而不是使用更直接的方法?
/* Compare no more than N characters of S1 and S2,
returning less than, equal to or greater than zero
if S1 is lexicographically less than, equal to or
greater than S2. */
int
STRNCMP (const char *s1, const char *s2, size_t n)
{
unsigned char c1 = '\0';
unsigned char c2 = '\0';
if (n >= 4)
{
size_t n4 = n >> 2;
do
{
c1 = (unsigned char) *s1++;
c2 = (unsigned char) *s2++;
if (c1 == '\0' || c1 != c2)
return c1 - c2;
c1 = (unsigned char) *s1++;
c2 = (unsigned char) *s2++;
if (c1 == '\0' || c1 != c2)
return c1 - c2;
c1 = (unsigned char) *s1++;
c2 = (unsigned char) *s2++;
if (c1 == '\0' || c1 != c2)
return c1 - c2;
c1 = (unsigned char) *s1++;
c2 = (unsigned char) *s2++;
if (c1 == '\0' || c1 != c2)
return c1 - c2;
} while (--n4 > 0);
n &= 3;
}
while (n > 0)
{
c1 = (unsigned char) *s1++;
c2 = (unsigned char) *s2++;
if (c1 == '\0' || c1 != c2)
return c1 - c2;
n--;
}
return c1 - c2;
}
有人可以解释代码背后的逻辑吗?
谢谢。
