“Unusual uses of SSE2” posted to github
In this month’s frenzy of putting source code out there in a usable form, I’ve posted source to github for the SSE2 implementations of string search, BNDM search, sorting [16] doubles, and bit-matrix transpose; plus some convenience tools for SSE2. … Continue reading
SSE2 bit matrix transpose special case … 8 x 256 … for Marek
It turns out that Marek’s Idea of the Day: Bitsliced SipHash used my SSE2 bit-matrix transpose routine, but it wasn’t fast enough. This is normally the case for SSE2: the more specific the problem, the better the code can be. I … Continue reading
SSE2 bit shift
For some reason, there are a ridiculously many google hits on this blog, for the string “SSE2 bit shift”. I didn’t post verbatim code for this, just cpp hints on addressing the silly const-arg-ness of counts for SSE2 shift operators. … Continue reading
What is SSE !@#$% good for? #2: Bit vector operations
You’ll notice that my definition of “good for” does not include video codec operations or other very specialized computations. You will probably never write a video codec in your life (well, perhaps you will — you know whom I mean). … Continue reading
