optimization Tips (for libavcodec):
What to optimize:
If you plan to do non-x86 architecture specific optimiztions (SIMD normally)
If you plan to do non-x86 architecture specific optimizations (SIMD normally),
then take a look in the i386/ directory, as most important functions are
already optimized for MMX.
@ -14,10 +14,11 @@ As many functions, like the C ones tend to be a bit unreadable currently
because of optimizations it is difficult to understand them (and write
architecture specific versions, or optimize the C functions further) it is
recommended to look at older CVS versions of the interesting files (just use
ViewCVS at http://www1.mplayerhq.hu/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/ffmpeg/?cvsroot=FFMpeg)
or perhaps look into the other architecture-specific versions in i386/, ppc/,
alpha/, ... Even if you don't understand the instructions exactly it could
help understanding the functions & how they can be optimized.

Alternatively, look into the other architecture-specific versions in the i386/,
ppc/, alpha/ subdirectories. Even if you don't exactly understand the
instructions, it could help understanding the functions and how they
can be optimized.
NOTE: If you still don't understand some function, ask at our mailing list!!!

Alignment:
Some instructions on some architectures have strict alignment restrictions,
for example most SSE/SSE2 inctructios on x86.
for example most SSE/SSE2 instructions on x86.
The minimum guaranteed alignment is written in the .h files, for example:
void (*put_pixels_clamped)(const DCTELEM *block/*align 16*/, UINT8 *pixels/*align 8*/, int line_size);
