Edit: Less flippant version (i386 asm, AT&T syntax)
xor %eax, %eax
mov %esi, %edi
#cld not necessary, assume DF=0 as per x86 ABI
repne scasb
scan:
dec %edi
cmpsb
.byte 0x75, 6 #jnz (short) done
dec %edi
cmp %esi, %edi
.byte 0x72, -9 #jb (short) scan
inc %eax
done:
16 bytes, string pointer goes in ESI, result is in EAX.
