# Gemini Project Context: libyuv Row Functions
|
|
|
|
This file provides context for the core row-processing architecture of
|
|
libyuv. Use these guidelines when refactoring, reviewing, or generating
|
|
code within the `row_*.cc` files.
|
|
|
|
## Architectural Overview
|
|
|
|
Libyuv uses a dispatch system where high-level conversion functions call
|
|
optimized "Row" functions. These functions are categorized by SIMD architecture
|
|
and compiler compatibility.
|
|
|
|
## Source File Map
|
|
|
|
### x86 Architectures (32-bit and 64-bit)
|
|
|
|
* **row_gcc.cc**: **Master copy.** Contains inline assembly in GCC syntax for
|
|
GCC and Clang. Supports AVX, and AVX512. AVX512 implementations are strictly
|
|
for 64-bit targets.
|
|
* **row_win.cc**: Derivative of `row_gcc.cc`. Contains C++ intrinsics
|
|
specifically for Visual C++ (MSVC). Can be tested with Clang using
|
|
`-DLIBYUV_ENABLE_ROWWIN`.
|
|
* **Note**: Use either `row_gcc` or `row_win`, never both.
|
|
|
|
### Arm Architecture (32-bit)
|
|
|
|
* **row_neon.cc**: 32-bit Arm. Written entirely in inline assembly for
|
|
GCC/Clang.
|
|
|
|
### Arm Architecture (AArch64) (64-bit)
|
|
|
|
* **row_neon64.cc**: 64-bit Arm (AArch64) Neon. Written entirely in inline
|
|
assembly for GCC/Clang.
|
|
* **row_sve.cc**: Armv9 Scalable Vector Extension (SVE2).
|
|
* **row_sme.cc**: Armv9 Scalable Matrix Extension (SME) and Streaming SVE
|
|
(SSVE).
|
|
* **row_sve.h**: Streaming-compatible implementations shared across
|
|
**row_sve.cc** and **row_sme.cc**.
|
|
|
|
### Other Architectures
|
|
|
|
* **row_rvv.cc**: RISC-V Vector (RVV). Implemented using intrinsics. Optimized
|
|
for SiFive X280.
|
|
* **row_lsx.cc / row_lasx.cc**: Loongarch MIPS-like extensions.
|
|
|
|
### Utility and Fallbacks
|
|
|
|
* **row_common.cc**: Portable C/C++ versions. This is the reference
|
|
implementation.
|
|
* **row_any.cc**: Handles "remainder" pixels for widths not multiples of SIMD
|
|
register size. Used for x86, Neon, and MIPS. Not required for SVE2, SME, or
|
|
RVV due to hardware-level masking.
|
|
|
|
## Coding Guidelines
|
|
|
|
1. **Feature Macros**: Use the `HAS_` macros in `include/libyuv/row.h` to
|
|
enable or disable specific instruction set extensions.
|
|
2. **Inline asm clobbers (all architectures)**: Every register written by an
|
|
inline asm block must be listed in its clobber list: vector registers,
|
|
general purpose registers, mask/predicate registers, `"cc"` when flags
|
|
are set (`subs`, `cmp`, `whilelt`, ...) and `"memory"` when the block
|
|
stores. Declare them even if the ABI treats them as caller-saved: with
|
|
LTO/LTCG the compiler may keep values live in any register across the
|
|
asm, and other OS ABIs (e.g. Windows) differ in which registers are
|
|
callee-saved. Never remove a clobber because it "is not needed by the
|
|
ABI". Use real register names, not numbers (`"v22"`, not `"22"`). Order
|
|
the list `"memory"` first (when stores occur), then `"cc"` (on
|
|
architectures with flags), then registers.
|
|
|
|
### x86 Architectures (32-bit and 64-bit)
|
|
|
|
1. **AVX512 Logic**: AVX512 row functions are strictly enabled for **64-bit x86
|
|
only**.
|
|
2. **MSVC Intrinsics (`row_win.cc`)**: When converting `row_gcc.cc` to
|
|
`row_win.cc`, use `_mm512_permutex2var_epi8`, not `_mm512_permi2var_epi8`
|
|
intrinsic.
|
|
3. **Clobber names**: Always declare vector clobbers as `"xmmN"`, never
|
|
`"ymmN"` or `"zmmN"`, including for AVX2 and AVX512 code. Clang for
|
|
Windows must preserve xmm6-xmm15 and does not save them when they are
|
|
declared as ymm or zmm.
|
|
|
|
### AArch64
|
|
|
|
1. For SVE2/SME, aim to use full predicates (`ptrue`) and full vectors for the
|
|
main loop body and use predication only to mask the tail loop as needed.
|
|
Pointer updates should be done with `inc[bhwd]` or `add`, not by `incp`.
|
|
|
|
## Changelist (CL) Format Guidelines
|
|
|
|
When adding new code, remove trailing spaces.
|
|
When generating descriptions, follow the Chromium standard format. Wrap
|
|
commit message text at 72 characters
|
|
|
|

Detailed technical explanation of the change. Describe the SIMD
|
|
optimization logic and any platform-specific constraints. Mention
