I think we should change this if-else into a plain if, something like that: void * memcpy(void *dest, const void *src, size_t count) { char *tmp = (char *) dest, *s = (char *) src; char *d8 = (char *)dest, *s8 = (char *)src; unsigned long *dl = (unsigned long *)dest, *sl = (unsigned long *)src; /* while all data is aligned (common case), copy a word at a time */ if ( (((int)dest | (int)src | count) & (sizeof(long) - 1)) == 0) { while (count) { *dl++ = *sl++; count -= sizeof(unsigned long); } } while (count--) *d8++ = *s8++; return dest; } This way we can have both - the "long" copy of a potential aligne dfirst part, and the byte copy of any trailing (or unaligned) part.
