For character search functions strchr() and strrchr(), the benchmark targets the NUL character. This ensures the entire string is scanned, providing a consistent measure of full-length processing efficiency comparable to strlen().

and strrchr().

For character search functions strchr() and strrchr(), the benchmark
targets the NUL character. This ensures the entire string is scanned,

lib/string_kunit: add performance benchmark for strlen() 2026-04-05T00:42:44+00:00 Feng Jiang jiangfeng@kylinos.cn 2026-04-04T01:28:47+00:00 0020240a431187628e2636284023e63b9b7a2aa1 Introduce a benchmarking framework to the string_kunit test suite to measure the execution efficiency of string functions. The implementation is inspired by crc_benchmark(), measuring throughput (MB/s) and latency (ns/call) across a range of string lengths. It includes a warm-up phase, disables preemption during measurement, and uses a fixed seed for reproducible results. This framework allows for comparing different implementations (e.g., generic C vs. architecture-optimized assembly) within the KUnit environment. Initially, provide a benchmark for strlen().
