Subject: Re: [SDL] [patch] MMX alpha blit patches with MMX detection
I think everything is correct now. I've done as much testing as I could,
but some real-world testing wouldn't hurt, I think.
The patch is here : http://icps.u-strasbg.fr/~marchesin/sdl_mmxblit.patch
If you do byte-by-byte comparison of the output between C and MMX
functions, you'll notice that the results for 555 and 565 RGB alpha
blits aren't exactly the same. This is because MMX functions for 555 and
565 RGB have an higher accuracy. If you want the exact same behaviour
that's possible by masking the three lower alpha bits in the MMX
functions. Just ask !
I removed one MMX function because after I fixed it to match its C
equivalent, it revealed to be slower than the C version on a PIII
(although a bit faster on an Athlon XP).
I've also added MMX and PIII replacements for SDL_memcpy. Those provide
some speed up in testvidinfo -benchmark (at least for me, under linux &
X11).

This is the porting of 1.2.0 version of SDL (the latest stable one) to AmigaOS/68k. All the bugs known of the past version have been corrected. And I've added all the new SDL features. This version of SDL needs Cybergraphx V3 (r69+) or CyberGraphX V4 and AHI v3+. Probably it works also with P96 or CGXAga, but it's untested. This version is available as linked library for SAS/C and GCC, only 68k this time, a powerup (ppcemu compatible) and a morphos version will be ready quite soon (i hope). Implemented: - 8/16/24/32bit video modes, both fullscreen and windowed. - Hardware surfaces. - CGX blitting acceleration. - CGX colorkey blitting acceleration. - AHI audio (8/16 bit, with any audio format), always uses unit 0 for now. - Thread support (maybe not 100% compatible with other implementations) - Semaphores - Window resizing and backdrop windows (NEW) - Joystick/Joypad support. To do: - CDRom audio playing support - OpenGL (A guy was working on it but I've lost his tracks :( ) The SAS/C library is distributed with debug info attached, to strip debug info simply add STRIPDEBUG argument to the linker. NOTE: SDL includes debug output using kprintf, to disable it add to your project a function like this: void kprintf(char *a,...) { } Otherwise you can redirect the debug to a console window with sushi, sashimi or similar tools (the default output is the internal serial port). For info, support, bugfix and other feel free to mail me: Gabriele Greco (gabriele.greco@aruba.it) You can find also a small SDL Amiga page at: http://ggreco.interfree.it/sdl.html
