/* File : bzero.c
Author : Richard A. O'Keefe.
Updated: 23 April 1984
Defines: bzero()
bzero(dst, len) moves "len" 0 bytes to "dst".
Thus to clear a disc buffer to 0s do bzero(buffer, BUFSIZ).
Note: the "b" routines are there to exploit certain VAX order codes,
but the MOVC5 instruction will only move 65535 characters. The asm
code is presented for your interest and amusement.
