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).

.TH "SDL_MapRGBA" "3" "Tue 11 Sep 2001, 23:01" "SDL" "SDL API Reference" 
.SH "NAME"
SDL_MapRGBA\- Map a RGBA color value to a pixel format\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.PP
\fB#include "SDL\&.h"
.sp
\fBUint32 \fBSDL_MapRGBA\fP\fR(\fBSDL_PixelFormat *fmt, Uint8 r, Uint8 g, Uint8 b, Uint8 a\fR);
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Maps the RGBA color value to the specified pixel format and returns the pixel value as a 32-bit int\&.
.PP
If the format has a palette (8-bit) the index of the closest matching color in the palette will be returned\&.
.PP
If the specified pixel format has no alpha component the alpha value will be ignored (as it will be in formats with a palette)\&.
.SH "RETURN VALUE"
.PP
A pixel value best approximating the given RGBA color value for a given pixel format\&. If the pixel format bpp (color depth) is less than 32-bpp then the unused upper bits of the return value can safely be ignored (e\&.g\&., with a 16-bpp format the return value can be assigned to a \fBUint16\fP, and similarly a \fBUint8\fP for an 8-bpp format)\&.
