And here you go. I decided to be verbose with the comments as it's easier to delete a comment to write one. I also left in a huge jumble of macros to calculate the contents of a helper var during compile time. This can easily be replaced with the calculated values once we settle on specific parameters. Currently only x86-64 is implemented. 32bit x86 would be mostly a copy-and-paste job, replacing 64bit pointer registers with 32bit ones. For other platforms the simplest way would be to use a vectorizing compiler on the generic variant. -funroll-loops -ftree-vectorize is enough on gcc.
