Abstract
One or more computer processors receive a pattern string comprising a pointer to a pattern search point and a string comprising a pointer to a search point; determine a plausible search point within the string for the pattern character; execute a search string (SRST) instruction with the determined search point and the pattern character; compute a pattern offset comprising a difference between a first occurrence of the determined pattern character located within the pattern string but not in the correct position and a current pattern character position; execute a subsequent SRST instruction with the current pattern character position and the computed offset set as a new search point; and responsive to identifying all pattern characters in the correct position within the string based on the executed subsequent SRST instruction, transmit memory address associated with a substring comprised of the string and corresponding pattern characters in the correct position.
