Date: Tue, 19 Aug 2003 17:57:00 +0200 From: Stephane Marchesin 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).

- Joystick support is not available
- CD-ROM control is not available

In addition, there are several features that run in "degraded" mode:

Preprocessor Symbol		Effect
===================		=================================

SDL_systimer.c:
USE_GETTICKCOUNT		Less accurate values for SDL time functions
USE_SETTIMER			Use only a single marginally accurate timer

SDL_syswm.c:
DISABLE_ICON_SUPPORT		Can't set the runtime window icon

SDL_sysmouse.c:
USE_STATIC_CURSOR		Only the arrow cursor is available

SDL_sysevents.c:
NO_GETKEYBOARDSTATE		Can't get modifier state on keyboard focus

SDL_dibevents.c:
NO_GETKEYBOARDSTATE		Very limited keycode translation

SDL_dibvideo.c:
NO_GETDIBITS			Can't distinguish between 15 bpp and 16 bpp
NO_CHANGEDISPLAYSETTINGS	No fullscreen support
NO_GAMMA_SUPPORT		Gamma correction not available
