But there is another aspect that the above is missing: Namely that if emms_c() is put outside of MMX functions, then it will be called even when it is unnecessary. In this case it is unnecessary for all modern CPUs, as this function is overridden when SSSE3 is available. > > thats what we did and what is most efficient.

Therefore, every function that uses the MMX registers is required to issue an emms or femms instruction after using MMX registers, before returning or calling another function." So using emms_c() is ABI-incompliant. If I add an av_assert0_fpu() at the beginning of av_log_default_callback (a function that may be overridden by a user-defined callback that actually relies on us conforming to the ABI), several FATE tests fail. I am sure that there are lots of av_logs or other functions that are in parts of the code where the CPU is not in x87 mode and that are just not executed in fate because they are error logs. - Andreas PS: On the brighter side: fate.ffmpeg.org now contains three more green boxes! _______________________________________________ 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".
