--- Comment #5 from Patrick J. LoPresti <lopre...@gmail.com> ---
Just a thought... How about adding VEX opcodes corresponding to these string
instructions?

Although the behavior of these instructions is (ludicrously) complex, the data
flow is pretty simple: Two vectors of input; one vector and a few condition
codes of output; every byte past the first zero ignored.

It seems to me that it should be pretty straightforward to do the memcheck
instrumentation directly for most (all?) of the PCMPxSTRx variants.

Intel has had a few instruction set iterations (AVX2/AVX512/BMI/etc.) and they
have not added any more monstrosities like these, so I do not think this would
be entering an endless rat hole.

What do you think?
