My SUN UltraSPARC crashes at unaligned memory access, unless you
give the -misalign flag to the compiler. But I think that slows things
down. Still, a NO_UNALIGNED_ACCESS flag is of course the cleaner way.
Memcopy-routines may still be optimized anyway, to use aligned access
as often as possible. It's a lot faster on intel as well...

Hello,
I am trying to build the latest libdivxdecore on Linux. I got the latest
sources from opendivx CVS repository. In the process I found two problems.
1. MISSING FILES IN OPENDIVX CVS REPOSITORY:
There are two files missing (they *definitely* aren't in CVS).
The missing files are:
divxcore/decore/src/timer.c
divxcore/decore/src/mmx/yuv2rgb_mmx.c
Both files are referred to by divxcore/decore/src/Makefile.am (snippets of
which are shown below):
libopendivx_decore_la_SOURCES= basic_prediction.c clearblock.c debug.c \
decore.c timer.c \
yuv2rgb_mmx.lo: mmx/yuv2rgb_mmx.c
$(CC) -g -Wall -fPIC -D_ATT_SYNTAX -I. -I.. -c $< -o $@
Removing -DPROFILING from CFLAGS causes timer.h to use the inlined no-op
timer functions, but that isn't the point. I still need yuv2rgb_mmx.c.
Please can someone put the missing files into CVS and inform the list when
this is done.
2. MISSING MACRO DEFINITION IN MMX/MMX.H:
The file divxcore/decore/src/mmx/basic_prediction_mmx.c contains 6
invocations of the (undefined) macro paddb_i2r. This macro is not defined
in mmx.h (where I suppose it should be).
I guess the correct macro definition for paddb_i2r would be the following:
#define paddb_i2r(imm, reg) mmx_i2r(paddb, imm, reg)
Please can someone make the correction and update mmx.h in CVS.
Regards,
Stuart.
