Hi
I am searching for some information if the pulse audio dmix part make use of hardware optimization on a ARMv7. The cat /proc/cpuinfo says:
Processor : ARMv7 Processor rev 7 (v7l)
BogoMIPS : 597.64
Features : swp half thumb fastmult vfp edsp neon vfpv3
CPU implementer : 0x41
CPU architecture: 7
CPU variant : 0x1
CPU part : 0xc08
CPU revision : 7
What is of interest is the "neon" in Features.
This "neon" is similar to SSE/MMX and should handle most of the mixing and other stuff.
But, I have also found some patches/mails mentioning problems on ARM.
So the question is:
Does pulse audio use optimized code for handling mixing on a ARM processor having the neon feature? My best gees is that it does.
The version of pulseaudio, where this should work is most welcome.
Or, is there something I have missed?
