2012-03-21Only support improved quantPaul Wilkins
Deprecate fast quant and strict_quant code. Small effect on quality as fast was used in first pass but the effect is basically neutral across the derf set. The rationale here is to reduce the number of code paths for now to make experimentation easier. Optimized and fast code options can be re-introduced later along with other encode speed options.

2012-02-16Code simplificationPaul Wilkins
Removal of the pickinter.c and .h files and calls to this code. Removal of some code relating to real time and one pass settings though there is more to be done in this regard. However, vp8_set_speed_features() now only supports modes 0 and 1 and speeds up to 3 so rd should always be set. Change-Id: I62c0c1b6154ab499785baef310536080e87bc4d8

2011-10-24Further segment feature extensions.Paul Wilkins
This quite large check in includes the following: Merge in some code from Ronald (mbgraph.c) that scans a Gf/arf group. This is used as a basis for a simple segmentation for the normal frames in a gf/arf group. This code also uses satd functions from Yaowu. Adds functionality for coding the latest possible position of an EOB for blocks in the segment. (Currently 0-15 only, hence just for 4x4 dct). Where the EOB position is 0 this acts like "skip" and the normal coding of skip at the per mb level is disabled. Added functions (seg_common.c) for setting and reading segment feature elements. These may want to be optimized away at some point but while the mecahnism is in a state of flux they provide a single location for making changes and keep things a bit cleaner. This is still proof of concept code. Currently the tested feature set:- Quantizer, Loop Filter level, Reference frame, Prediction Mode, EOB end stop. TBD:- Add functions for setting and reading the feature data with range and validity checking. Handling of signed and unsigned feature data. At the moment all is assumed to be signed and a sign bit is coded but many cannot be negative. Correct handling of EOB feature with intra coded blocks. Testing/trapping of legal/illegal ref frame and mode combinations. Transform size switch plus merge and test with 8c8 DCT work Merge and test with Sumans Segmenation coding optimizations Change-Id: Iee12e83661c7abbd1e0ce6810915eb4ec35e2d8e

2011-07-22Preload reference area to an intermediate buffer in sub-pixel motion searchYunqing Wang
In sub-pixel motion search, the search range is small(+/- 3 pixels). Preload whole search area from reference buffer into a 32-byte aligned buffer. Then in search, load reference data from this buffer instead. This keeps data in cache, and reduces the crossing cache- line penalty. For tulip clip, tests on Intel Core2 Quad machine(linux) showed encoder speed improvement: 3.4% at --rt --cpu-used =-4 2.8% at --rt --cpu-used =-3 2.3% at --rt --cpu-used =-2 2.2% at --rt --cpu-used =-1 Test on Atom notebook showed only 1.1% speed improvement(speed=-4). Test on Xeon machine also showed less improvement, since unaligned data access latency is greatly reduced in newer cores. Next, I will apply similar idea to other 2 sub-pixel search functions for encoding speed > 4. Make this change exclusively for x86 platforms. Change-Id: Ia7bb9f56169eac0f01009fe2b2f2ab5b61d2eb2f

2011-05-09Use diamond search to replace full search in full-pixel refining searchYunqing Wang
In NEWMV mode, currently, full search is used as the refining search after n-step search. By replacing it with an iterative diamond search of radius 1 largely reduced the computation complexity, but still maintained the same encoding quality since the refining search is done for every macroblock instead of only a small precentage of macroblocks while using full search. Tests on the test set showed a 3.4% encoding speed increase with none psnr & ssim loss. Change-Id: Ife907d7eb9544d15c34f17dc6e4cfd97cb743d41

2011-03-17Increase static linkage, remove unused functionsJohn Koleszar
A large number of functions were defined with external linkage, even though they were only used from within one file. This patch changes their linkage to static and removes the vp8_ prefix from their names, which should make it more obvious to the reader that the function is contained within the current translation unit. Functions that were not referenced were removed.

2011-01-19experiment extending the quantizer rangeYaowu Xu
Prior to this change, VP8 min quantizer is 4, which caps the highest quality around 51DB. This experimental change extends the min quantizer to 1, removes the cap and allows the highest quality to be around ~73DB, consistent with the fdct/idct round trip error. To test this change, at configure time use options: --enable-experimental --enable-extend_qrange The following is a brief log of changes in each of the patch sets patch set 1: In this commit, the quantization/dequantization constants are kept unchanged, instead scaling factor 4 is rolled into fdct/idct. Fixed Q0 encoding tests on mobile: Before: 9560.567kbps Overall PSNR:50.255DB VPXSSIM:98.288 Now: 18035.774kbps Overall PSNR:73.022DB VPXSSIM:99.991 patch set 2: regenerated dc/ac quantizer lookup tables based on the scaling factor rolled in the fdct/idct. Also slightly extended the range towards the high quantizer end. patch set 3: slightly tweaked the quantizer tables and generated bits_per_mb table based on Paul's suggestions. patch set 4: fix a typo in idct, re-calculated tables relating active max Q to active min Q patch set 5: added rdmult lookup table based on Q patch set 6: fix rdmult scale: dct coefficient has scaled up by 4 patch set 7: make transform coefficients to be within 16bits patch set 8: normalize 2nd order quantizers patch set 9: fix mis-spellings patch set 10: change the configure script and macros to allow experimental code to be enabled at configure time with --enable-extend_qrange patch set 11: rebase for merge Change-Id: Ib50641ddd44aba2a52ed890222c309faa31cc59c

2010-12-22abstract apply_temporal_filterJohann
allow for optimized versions of apply_temporal_filter (now vp8_apply_temporal_filter_c) the function was previously declared as static and appears to have been inlined. with this change, that's no longer possible. performance takes a small hit. the declaration for vp8_cx_temp_filter_c was moved to onyx_if.c because of a circular dependency. for rtcd, temporal_filter.h holds the definition for the rtcd table, so it needs to be included by onyx_int.h. however, onyx_int.h holds the definition for VP8_COMP which is needed for the function prototype. blah.

2010-10-27Fix half-pixel variance RTCD functionsJohn Koleszar
This patch fixes the system dependent entries for the half-pixel variance functions in both the RTCD and non-RTCD cases: - The generic C versions of these functions are now correct. Before all three cases called the hv code. - Wire up the ARM functions in RTCD mode - Created stubs for x86 to call the optimized subpixel functions with the correct parameters, rather than falling back to C code.

2010-10-25Add runtime CPU detection support for ARM.Timothy B. Terriberry
The primary goal is to allow a binary to be built which supports NEON, but can fall back to non-NEON routines, since some Android devices do not have NEON, even if they are otherwise ARMv7 (e.g., Tegra). The configure-generated flags HAVE_ARMV7, etc., are used to decide which versions of each function to build, and when CONFIG_RUNTIME_CPU_DETECT is enabled, the correct version is chosen at run time. In order for this to work, the CFLAGS must be set to something appropriate (e.g., without -mfpu=neon for ARMv7, and with appropriate -march and -mcpu for even earlier configurations), or the native C code will not be able to run. The ASFLAGS must remain set for the most advanced instruction set required at build time, since the ARM assembler will refuse to emit them otherwise. I have not attempted to make any changes to configure to do this automatically. Doing so will probably require the addition of new configure options. Many of the hooks for RTCD on ARM were already there, but a lot of the code had bit-rotted, and a good deal of the ARM-specific code is not integrated into the RTCD structs at all. I did not try to resolve the latter, merely to add the minimal amount of protection around them to allow RTCD to work. Those functions that were called based on an ifdef at the calling site were expanded to check the RTCD flags at that site, but they should be added to an RTCD struct somewhere in the future. The functions invoked with global function pointers still are, but these should be moved into an RTCD struct for thread safety (I believe every platform currently supported has atomic pointer stores, but this is not guaranteed). The encoder's boolhuff functions did not even have _c and armv7 suffixes, and the correct version was resolved at link time. The token packing functions did have appropriate suffixes, but the version was selected with a define, with no associated RTCD struct. However, for both of these, the only armv7 instruction they actually used was rbit, and this was completely superfluous, so I reworked them to avoid it. The only non-ARMv4 instruction remaining in them is clz, which is ARMv5 (not even ARMv5TE is required). Considering that there are no ARM-specific configs which are not at least ARMv5TE, I did not try to detect these at runtime, and simply enable them for ARMv5 and above. Finally, the NEON register saving code was completely non-reentrant, since it saved the registers to a global, static variable. I moved the storage for this onto the stack. A single binary built with this code was tested on an ARM11 (ARMv6) and a Cortex A8 (ARMv7 w/NEON), for both the encoder and decoder, and produced identical output, while using the correct accelerated functions on each. I did not test on any earlier processors. Change-Id: I45cbd63a614f4554c3b325c45d46c0806f009eaa
