Frank Barchard bad060c3a5 Rotate intrinsics for Visual C, ROWWIN and 32 bit x86
- Port rotate_gcc.cc to intrinsics in rotate_win.cc: TransposeWx8_SSSE3,
  TransposeUVWx8_SSE2, TransposeWx16_AVX2, TransposeUVWx16_AVX2,
  Transpose4x4_32_SSE2, Transpose4x4_32_AVX2, and for 64 bit,
  TransposeWx16_AVX512BW and TransposeUVWx16_AVX512BW.
- Remove the 32 bit Visual C inline assembly.
- Enable rotate_win.cc for Visual C 32/64 bit, LIBYUV_ENABLE_ROWWIN,
  which MemorySanitizer also enables, and all 32 bit x86 compilers.
  Visual C 64 bit previously used C.
- rotate_gcc.cc is now 64 bit only. 32 bit gcc and clang only had an
  8x8 TransposeWx8_SSSE3 and Transpose4x4_32, because the UV and AVX2
  inline assembly uses xmm8..xmm15, so 32 bit NV12 rotate used C.
  Remove the 32 bit TransposeWx8_SSSE3 inline assembly.
- Add a target("sse2") attribute to the SSE2 intrinsics so gcc and
  clang build them when the baseline lacks SSE2, such as
  -march=pentium3.
- Disable the generic x86 scale_row.h and compare_row.h HAS_ macros for
  32 bit LIBYUV_ENABLE_ROWWIN, as is done for 64 bit. scale_gcc.cc and
  compare_gcc.cc are disabled for ROWWIN and scale_win.cc and
  compare_win.cc require _MSC_VER, so out/rowwin_x86 failed to link with
  undefined symbols such as ScaleARGBCols_SSE2 and HashDjb2_SSE41.
- TransposeWx8_SSSE3 and TransposeUVWx8_SSE2 share a 16x8 helper.
- TransposeWx8_SSSE3 requires a multiple of 16 on all platforms.
- Byte transposes use a shared helper with dst_a / dst_b outputs so
  2, 3 and 4 channel variants can reuse the same shuffles.

out/Release and out/Release_x86, under sde64 -skx for AVX512BW, and
with out/msan (is_msan = true) and out/rowwin_x86
(target_cpu = "x86", libyuv_enable_rowwin = true). Built out/android_x86
(target_os = "android", target_cpu = "x86"). Compiled rotate_win.cc
with g++ and clang++ -m32 -march=pentium3.

libyuv is an open source project that includes YUV scaling and conversion functionality.

  • Scale YUV to prepare content for compression, with point, bilinear or box filter.
  • Convert to YUV from webcam formats for compression.
  • Convert to RGB formats for rendering/effects.
  • Rotate by 90/180/270 degrees to adjust for mobile devices in portrait mode.
  • Optimized for SSSE3/AVX2 on x86/x64.
  • Optimized for Neon/SVE2/SME on Arm.
  • Optimized for MSA on Mips.
  • Optimized for RVV on RISC-V.
