[Pixman] [PATCH 0/8] SIMD optimizations for nearest scaling with mask

[Siarhei Siamashka]

From: Siarhei Siamashka <siarhei.siamashka at nokia.com>

Some of the scaled compositing operations are also using mask.
Fortunately practically all of them are simple enough to handle
and basically represent two cases:
1. non-scaled a8 mask with SAMPLES_COVER_CLIP flag
2. solid mask

More details based on cairo traces analysis can be found here:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/pixman/2010-December/000813.html

This set of patches provides support for these two types of mask in
the nearest scaling main loop macro template and also implements
a few ARM NEON and SSE2 optimizations. Some more nearest scaling C fast
paths are also available (and have been used for testing this code) but
are not included yet because they are not always beneficial:

The same patches are also available in the following branch:

Siarhei Siamashka (8):
  Use const modifiers for source buffers in nearest scaling fast paths
  test: Extend scaling-test to support a8/solid mask and ADD operation
  Support for a8 and solid mask in nearest scaling main loop template
  Better support for NONE repeat in nearest scaling main loop template
  ARM: new macro template for using scaled fast paths with a8 mask
  ARM: NEON optimization for nearest scaled over_8888_8_0565
  ARM: NEON optimization for nearest scaled over_0565_8_0565
  SSE2 optimization for nearest scaled over_8888_n_8888
