From: Henrik Gramner <hen...@gramner.com> When operating on large blocks of data it's common to repeatedly use an instruction on multiple registers. Using the REPX macro makes it easy to quickly write dense code to achieve this without having to explicitly duplicate the same instruction over and over.
For example, REPX {paddw x, m4}, m0, m1, m2, m3 REPX {mova [r0+16*x], m5}, 0, 1, 2, 3 will expand to paddw m0, m4 paddw m1, m4 paddw m2, m4 paddw m3, m4 mova [r0+16*0], m5 mova [r0+16*1], m5 mova [r0+16*2], m5 mova [r0+16*3], m5 Commit taken from x264: https://code.videolan.org/videolan/x264/-/commit/6d10612ab0007f8f60dd2399182efd696da3ffe4 Signed-off-by: Frank Plowman <p...@frankplowman.com> --- libavutil/x86/x86inc.asm | 10 ++++++++++ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+) diff --git a/libavutil/x86/x86inc.asm b/libavutil/x86/x86inc.asm index 251ee797de..e099ee4b10 100644 --- a/libavutil/x86/x86inc.asm +++ b/libavutil/x86/x86inc.asm @@ -232,6 +232,16 @@ DECLARE_REG_TMP_SIZE 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14 %define gprsize 4 %endif +; Repeats an instruction/operation for multiple arguments. +; Example usage: "REPX {psrlw x, 8}, m0, m1, m2, m3" +%macro REPX 2-* ; operation, args + %xdefine %%f(x) %1 + %rep %0 - 1 + %rotate 1 + %%f(%1) + %endrep +%endmacro + %macro PUSH 1 push %1 %ifidn rstk, rsp -- 2.41.0 _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
