Added float-to-byte color conversion, including an SSE assembler
version.
Model renderer: Push UV coordinates into a shared vertex array and use
bytes instead of floats for the color array, thereby, significantly
reducing
the total size of vertex arrays.
This was SVN commit r2827.
executive summary: memcpy2 aka. ia32_memcpy is a drop-in replacement
that is much faster than memcpy (7% on small buffers, 300% on 192K
buffers)
This was SVN commit r2729.
considerable continued cleanup in ia32
came across article detailing HT detect on multicore systems. that
requires new code, working on it.
pthread: while reading, came across idea of wrapping thread trampoline
in __except -> more reliable exception handling
This was SVN commit r2716.
premake stuff: call assembler objects *.asm.obj instead of *.obj (so
that ia32.asm doesn't collide with ia32.cpp)
ia32.asm: use .text section for proper linkage
This was SVN commit r2709.
lib: add bits() function (actually moved it from zip.cpp)
ia32: start moving code out to external asm file (will use NASM in
pre-build step; avoids needing MSC and GCC-specific inline code). move
memcpy test code out to other file
This was SVN commit r2706.
