Changes to allow more use of rectangular partitions at
speeds 1 and 2 for content classed by the first pass as
animation and for blocks near the active image edge.
This has quite a big impact in quality for the animated
test sequence but also hurts encode speed for speed 2.
For other content types the impact on both speed and
quality is small.
Added some plumbing for detection of internal vertical
image edges.

Change speed features / behavior for split mode when there
is an internal active edge (e.g. formatting bars).
Remove some threshold constraints in rd code near the active
edge of the image.
Add some plumbing for left and right active edge detection.
Patch set 5. Limit rd pass through for sub 8x8 to internal active edges.
This takes away any speed penalty for most clips but keeps the enhanced
edge coding for the more critical case of internal image edges

this macro was used inconsistently and only differs in behavior from
DECLARE_ALIGNED when an alignment attribute is unavailable. this macro
is used with calls to assembly, while generic c-code doesn't rely on it,
so in a c-only build without an alignment attribute the code will
function as expected.

This commit separates Hadamard transform/quantization operations
from rate and distortion computation in block_yrd. This allows one
to skip SATD computation when all transform blocks are quantized
to zero. It also uses a new block error function that skips
repeated computation of sum of squared residuals. It reduces the
CPU cycles spent on block error calculation in block_yrd by 40%.

To enable us to the scale-invariant motion estimation
code during mode selection, each of the reference
buffers is scaled to match the size of the frame
being encoded.
This fix ensures that a unit scaling factor is used in
this case rather than the one calculated assuming that
the reference frame is not scaled.

Revised adjustment for rd based on source complexity.
Two cases:
1) Bias against low variance intra predictors
when the actual source variance is higher.
2) When the source variance is very low to give a slight
bias against predictors that might introduce false texture
or features.
The impact on metrics of this change across the test sets is
small and mixed.

This experiment biases the rd decision based on the impact
a mode decision has on the relative spatial complexity of the
reconstruction vs the source.
The aim is to better retain a semblance of texture even if it
is slightly misaligned / wrong, rather than use a simple rd
measure that tends to favor use of a flat predictor if a perfect
match can't be found.
This improves the appearance of texture and visual quality
on specific test clips but is hidden under a flag and currently
off by default pending visual quality testing on a wider Yt set.

The joint_motion_search function alternates prediction
between two reference frames. In order to reuse existing
code, a pointer to the appropriate reference frame is
written into xd->plane[0].pre[0], that the motion
estimation code assumes points to the reference frame.
If this first reference frame was scaled then the
pointer was incorrectly being reset to point to the
unscaled reference frame rather than the scaled
version.

Frame buffers are now allocated dynamically on-demand.
Entries in the reference frame map, cm->ref_frame_map,
may now be set to -1 (INVALID_IDX) to indicate that
there is not a valid reference buffer in that "slot".
All slots in the reference frame map are now initialized
to the empty state (-1) and each buffer is initialized
to have a reference count of 0.

Note: This feature is still in development.
Add an option for the encoder to decide the resolution
at which to encode each frame.
Each KF/GF/ARF goup is tested to see if it would be
better encoded at a lower resolution. At present, each
KF/GF/ARF is coded first at full-size and if the coded
size exceeds a threshold (twice target data rate) at
the maximum active Q then the entire group is encoded
at lower resolution.
This feature is enabled in vpxenc by setting:
--resize-allowed=1
In addition, if the vpxenc command line also specifies
valid frame dimensions using:
--resize-width=XXXX & --resize_height=YYYY
then *all* frames will be encoded at this resolution.

In frame parallel decode, libvpx decoder decodes several frames on all
cpus in parallel fashion. If not being flushed, it will only return frame
when all the cpus are busy. If getting flushed, it will return all the
frames in the decoder. Compare with current serial decode mode in which
libvpx decoder is idle between decode calls, libvpx decoder is busy
between decode calls.
Current frame parallel decode will only speed up the decoding for frame
parallel encoded videos. For non frame parallel encoded videos, frame
parallel decode is slower than serial decode due to lack of loopfilter
worker thread.
There are still some known issues that need to be addressed. For example:

Where there is very subtle motion, especially when combined
with low spatial complexity, the codec sometimes fails to quickly
pick up the ambient motion field.
Once it has been established though the field propagates well using
Nearest and Near MV.
This patch looks specifically at the case where the Nearest and Near
have not been established as non zero vectors and in this case
discounts the cost of searching for a new vector in the rd code.
This will almost certainly have some implications in terms of encode
speed but it should be possible to mitigate the impact in a subsequent
using first pass stats and the local spatial complexity.
Average results for test sets approximately neutral.

This patch modified struct VP9_COMP. Created a struct ThreadData
to include data that need to be copied for each thread. In
multiple thread case, one thread processes one tile. all threads
share one copy of VP9_COMP,
(refer to VP9_COMP *cpi in the code)
but each thread has its own copy of ThreadData,
(refer to ThreadData *td in the code).
Therefore, within the scope of encode_tiles(), both cpi and td
need to be passed as function parameters.
In single thread case, the FRAME_COUNTS pointer in ThreadData
points to "counts" in VP9_COMMON.

In model_rd_for_sb function, the spatial domain SSE and variance
are checked to see if transform coefficients are quantized to 0.
Besides that, this patch adds another set of thresholds that are
much more strict. These thresholds are used to conduct a partition
block level check to measure if all its TX blocks are skippable
for YUV planes. If it is true, x->skip is set for this partition
block, and thus its mode search is terminated.
This speeds up the encoding at very low prediction error case,
such as screen sharing application. This patch covers what
rd_encode_breakout_test() does, so that function is removed.
Borg test at speed 3 shows:
For stdhd set, psnr: +0.008%, ssim: +0.014%;

mi_grid_* are arrays of pointer to pointer. They save the pointers that point

goal was to remove MODE_INFO_t copy. But with an extra MODE_INFO_t pointer
inside MODE_INFO_t, same goal could be achieved.
This commit totally removes the mi_grid_* structures. But there are still

This commit replaces the best_ref_index table fetch with the use
of best_mbmode in vp9_rd_pick_inter_mode_sub8x8.
Change-Id: I882ee9ee6a8c0e61befcca1f4dba6d2ea8de8f13
This commit unifies the reference frame control in the rate-
distortion optimization search loop of sub8x8 block size to remove
the control dependency on mode search order.

Adds various high bitdepth transform functions and tests.
Much of the changes are related to using typedefs tran_low_t
and tran_high_t for the final transform cofficients and intermediate
stages of the transform computation respectively rather than fixed
types int16_t/int. When vp9_highbitdepth configure flag is off,
these map tp int16_t/int32_t, but when the flag is on, they map
to int32_t/int64_t to make space for needed extra precision.

The variable best_inter_rd is effectively not in use in the rate-
distortion mode search loops of both regular block sizes and sub8x8
block sizes.

The speed feature that skips compound inter prediction modes was
subsumed by other speed features and effectively was not in use.
This commit removes it.

Integrate intra mode mask speed feature with the mode_skip_mask
scheme. Move it outside the mode search loop in the
vp9_rd_pick_inter_mode_sb function.
Change-Id: I7738fea749bfdc08ad05d7f2524feb8ff67568d9
This speed feature is used in real-time setting only. Remove the
related condition check in the rate-distortion optimization search
loop.

Refactor overlay frame speed-up related function. Make it unified
with the ref_frame_skip_mask system and Move it out of the mode
search loop.
Change-Id: I0dde9baf44354f6ba00b4679cba02fa6a30c7316
This commit refactor the rate-distortion optimization search for
regular block sizes to remove the speed feature dependency on mode
search order.
Change-Id: Ied033ee484c2957e17baa7b6450b720fe7dd0e7d
This commit fixes a bug related to skipping intra mode checking, by
using a separate variable to store the best prediction error from
inter mode. It avoids unintentionally overwriting intra mode
rate-distortion cost, and hence affecting other speed features.

Assigning selected reference frame pointer is done in the
encode_superblock function. No need to do this at the end of
rate-distortion optimization search.

This commit refactors the vp9_rd_pick_inter_mode_sb function to
remove the intra mode early termination dependency on the mode
search order.
Change-Id: If6ac49aa7c530c7b9a5bd31b0ab84db83e192bec
This commit allows the encoder to find current best prediction mode
state using best_mbmode, instead of fetching from the static mode
search table via best_mode_index.

The rate costs calculated for inter modes are not precise in some
cases, which causes NEWMV is chosen instead of NEARESTMV, NEARMV,
and ZEROMV. This patch added checks for these cases, and corrected
the mode decisions.
Borg tests at speed 3 showed:
1. stdhd set: 0.102% PSNR gain and 0.088% SSIM gain.
2. derf set: 0.147% PSNR gain and 0.132% SSIM gain.
No speed change.

This commit turns on adaptive motion search for ARF coding, in
addition to other normal inter frame coding. It improves the
average compression efficiency:
stdhd 0.1%
derf 0.04%
For the test sequences, the speed 3 runtime is reduced:
pedestrian 1080p 2000 kbps, 149932 ms -> 144580 ms, (3.3% speed-up)
bus CIF 1000 kbps, 8050 ms -> 7895 ms, (1.9%)
highway CIF 100 bkps, 45033 ms -> 44078 ms, (2.2%)
