These files were too big for the email system that manages our development mailing list.
Files were uploaded to https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265/downloads *From:* Tom Vaughan [mailto:tom.vaug...@multicorewareinc.com] *Sent:* Friday, August 26, 2016 2:49 PM *To:* Development for x265 *Subject:* x265 on IBM POWER Attached is a set of source files contributed by IBM, optimizing x265 for the POWER8 architecture. · threadpool.cpp: we have modified the allocThreadPools() function to cope with core numbering on P8. · dct_altivec.cpp, intrapred_altivec.cpp, ipfilter_altivec.cpp, pixel_altivec.cpp: a set of vectorized functions for the POWER architecture. IBM placed these files under source/common/ppc (a newly created dir) Although this is not in proper patch format, I wanted to share these optimizations with the wider community while the x265 development team reviews, tests and integrates these improvements. Feedback and comments are welcomed. Many thanks to the team at IBM for contributing these improvements. If there are open source (x265 FFMPEG, etc.) developers who need access to IBM POWER server instances, there was an offer made earlier on our Bitbucket issues tracker <https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265/issues/138/bounty-1-use-altivec-to-optimize-the-file> by David Edelsohn at IBM to provide access.
