+-- This package provides general block copy mechanisms analogous to those
+-- provided by the C routines memcpy and memmove allowing for copies with
+-- and without possible overlap of the operands.
+
+-- The idea is to allow a configurable run-time to provide this capability
+-- for use by the compiler without dragging in C-run time routines.

+ procedure memcpy (S1 : Address; S2 : Address; N : System.CRTL.size_t)
+ renames System.CRTL.memcpy;
+ -- Copies N storage units from area starting at S2 to area starting
+ -- at S1 without any check for buffer overflow. The memory areas
+ -- must not overlap, or the result of this call is undefined.
+
+ procedure memmove (S1 : Address; S2 : Address; N : System.CRTL.size_t)
+ renames System.CRTL.memmove;
+ -- Copies N storage units from area starting at S2 to area starting
+ -- at S1 without any check for buffer overflow. The difference between
+ -- this memmove and memcpy is that with memmove, the storage areas may
+ -- overlap (forwards or backwards) and the result is correct (i.e. it
+ -- is as if S2 is first moved to a temporary area, and then this area
+ -- is copied to S1 in a separate step).
+
+ -- In the standard library, these are just interfaced to the C routines.
+ -- But in the HI-E (high integrity version) they may be reprogrammed to
+ -- meet certification requirements (and marked High_Integrity).
+
+ -- Note that in high integrity mode these routines are by default not
+ -- available, and the HI-E compiler will as a result generate implicit
+ -- loops (which will violate the restriction No_Implicit_Loops).
