2012-03-15WebM Experimental Codec Branch SnapshotYaowu Xu
This is a code snapshot of experimental work currently ongoing for a next-generation codec. The codebase has been cut down considerably from the libvpx baseline. For example, we are currently only supporting VBR 2-pass rate control and have removed most of the code relating to coding speed, threading, error resilience, partitions and various other features. This is in part to make the codebase easier to work on and experiment with, but also because we want to have an open discussion about how the bitstream will be structured and partitioned and not have that conversation constrained by past work. Our basic working pattern has been to initially encapsulate experiments using configure options linked to #IF CONFIG_XXX statements in the code. Once experiments have matured and we are reasonably happy that they give benefit and can be merged without breaking other experiments, we remove the conditional compile statements and merge them in. Current changes include: * Temporal coding experiment for segments (though still only 4 max, it will likely be increased). * Segment feature experiment - to allow various bits of information to be coded at the segment level. Features tested so far include mode and reference frame information, limiting end of block offset and transform size, alongside Q and loop filter parameters, but this set is very fluid. * Support for 8x8 transform - 8x8 dct with 2nd order 2x2 haar is used in MBs using 16x16 prediction modes within inter frames. * Compound prediction (combination of signals from existing predictors to create a new predictor). * 8 tap interpolation filters and 1/8th pel motion vectors. * Loop filter modifications. * Various entropy modifications and changes to how entropy contexts and updates are handled. * Extended quantizer range matched to transform precision improvements. There are also ongoing further experiments that we hope to merge in the near future: For example, coding of motion and other aspects of the prediction signal to better support larger image formats, use of larger block sizes (e.g. 32x32 and up) and lossless non-transform based coding options (especially for key frames). It is our hope that we will be able to make regular updates and we will warmly welcome community contributions. Please be warned that, at this stage, the codebase is currently slower than VP8 stable branch as most new code has not been optimized, and even the 'C' has been deliberately written to be simple and obvious, not fast. The following graphs have the initial test results, numbers in the tables measure the compression improvement in terms of percentage.

Better fix for #326. ICC happens to support the inline magic Change-Id: Ic367eea608c88d89475cb7b05d73500d2a1bc42b
2011-04-19modify SAVE_XMM for potential 64bit useJohann
the win64 abi requires saving and restoring xmm6:xmm15. currently SAVE_XMM and RESTORE XMM only allow for saving xmm6:xmm7. allow specifying the highest register used and if the stack is unaligned. Change-Id: Ica5699622ffe3346d3a486f48eef0206c51cf867
2011-04-19Merge "Add save/restore xmm registers in x86 assembly code"Johann
2011-04-18Add save/restore xmm registers in x86 assembly codeJohann
Went through the code and fixed it. Verified on Windows. Where possible, remove dependencies on xmm[67] Current code relies on pushing rbp to the stack to get 16 byte alignment. This broke when rbp wasn't pushed (vp8/encoder/x86/sad_sse3.asm). Work around this by using unaligned memory accesses. Revisit this and the offsets in vp8/encoder/x86/sad_sse3.asm in another change to SAVE_XMM. Change-Id: I5f940994d3ebfd977c3d68446cef20fd78b07877

2011-01-28Adds "armvX-none-rvct" targetsTero Rintaluoma
Adds following targets to configure script to support RVCT compilation without operating system support (for Profiler or bare metal images). - armv5te-none-rvct - armv6-none-rvct - armv7-none-rvct To strip OS specific parts from the code "os_support"-config was added to script and CONFIG_OS_SUPPORT flag is used in the code to exclude OS specific parts such as OS specific includes and function calls for timers and threads etc. This was done to enable RVCT compilation for profiling purposes or running the image on bare metal target with Lauterbach. Removed separate AREA directives for READONLY data in armv6 and neon assembly files to fix the RVCT compilation. Otherwise "ldr <reg>, =label" syntax would have been needed to prevent linker errors. This syntax is not supported by older gnu assemblers. Change-Id: I14f4c68529e8c27397502fbc3010a54e505ddb43
2010-10-27Full search SAD function optimization in SSE4.1Yunqing Wang
Use mpsadbw, and calculate 8 sad at once. Function list: vp8_sad16x16x8_sse4 vp8_sad16x8x8_sse4 vp8_sad8x16x8_sse4 vp8_sad8x8x8_sse4 vp8_sad4x4x8_sse4 (test clip: tulip) For best quality mode, this gave encoder a 5% performance boost. For good quality mode with speed=1, this gave encoder a 3% performance boost. Change-Id: I083b5a39d39144f88dcbccbef95da6498e490134
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

2010-10-04nasm: avoid relative include pathsJan Kratochvil
nasm does not automatically assume the source's directory also for its include files. Provide nasm compatibility. No binary change by this patch with yasm on {x86_64,i686}-fedora13-linux-gnu. Few longer opcodes with nasm on {x86_64,i686}-fedora13-linux-gnu have been checked as safe. Change-Id: I386efa0cca5d401193416c11bd7363a283541645
2010-10-04nasm: address labels 'rel label' vice 'wrt rip'Jan Kratochvil
nasm does not support `label wrt rip', it requires `rel label'. It is still fully compatible with yasm. Provide nasm compatibility. No binary change by this patch with yasm on {x86_64,i686}-fedora13-linux-gnu. Few longer opcodes with nasm on {x86_64,i686}-fedora13-linux-gnu have been checked as safe.

2010-10-04nasm: match instruction length (movd/movq) to parametersJan Kratochvil
nasm requires the instruction length (movd/movq) to match to its parameters. I find it more clear to really use 64bit instructions when we use 64bit registers in the assembly. Provide nasm compatibility. No binary change by this patch with yasm on {x86_64,i686}-fedora13-linux-gnu. Few longer opcodes with nasm on {x86_64,i686}-fedora13-linux-gnu have been checked as safe.

2010-06-24Remove INLINE/FORCEINLINEJohn Koleszar
These are mostly vestigial, it's up to the compiler to decide what should be inlined, and this collided with certain Windows platform SDKs. Change-Id: I80dd35de25eda7773156e355b5aef8f7e44e179b
2010-06-21Fix a linker error on x86-64 Linux when not using a version script.Timothy B. Terriberry
If the version script produced by the libvpx build system is not used when linking a shared library on x86-64 Linux, the constant data in the subpel filters produces R_X86_64_32 relocation errors due to the use of wrt rip addressing instead of wrt rip wrt ..gotpcrel. Instead of adding a new macro for this addressing mode, this patch sets the ELF visibility of these symbols to "hidden", which allows wrt rip addressing to work without a text relocation. This allows building a shared library without using the provided build system or a separate version script.

2010-05-24install includes in DIST_DIR/include/vpx, move vpx_codec/ to vpx/John Koleszar
This renames the vpx_codec/ directory to vpx/, to allow applications to more consistently reference these includes with the vpx/ prefix. This allows the includes to be installed in /usr/local/include/vpx rather than polluting the system includes directory with an excessive number of includes.
