Sequentially accessing memory from a low address to a high
address should make it easier for the processor to predict
the cache.

Changes 'The VP8 project' to 'The WebM project', for consistency
with other webmproject.org repositories.
Fixes issue #97.

Moved partition_bmi and partition_count out of MB_MODE_INFO and
placed into MACROBLOCK. Also reduced the size of other members
of the MB_MODE_INFO struct. For 1080p, the memory was reduced
by 1,209,516 bytes. The decoder performance appeared to improve
by 3% for the clip used.
Note: The main goal for this change is to improve the decoder
performance. The encoder will be revisited at a later date for
further structure cleanup.

Remove the dependency on postproc.c for the encoder in general, the only
unchecked need for it is when CONFIG_PSNR is enabled. All other cases
are already wrapped in CONFIG_POSTPROC. In the CONFIG_PSNR case the file
will still be included.
Additionally, when VP8_SET_POSTPROC is used with the encoder when post
processing has been disabled an error will be returned.
This addresses issue #153.

The main reason for the change was to reduce cycles in the token
decoder. (~1.5% gain for 32 bit) This layout should be more
cache friendly.
As a result of this change, the encoder had to be updated.

Note: dixie uses a similar layout
The memory being zeroed in vp8_update_mode_info_border() was just
allocated with calloc, and so the entire function is actually
redundant, but it should be made correct in case someone expects
it to actually work in the future.

Moving the eob structure allows for a non-struct based
function to handle decoding an entire mb of
idct/dequant/recon data. This allows for SIMD functions
to idct/dequant/recon multiple blocks at once.
SSE2 implementation gives 3% gain on Atom.

Clang defaults to C99 mode, and inline works differently in C99.
(gcc, on the other hand, defaults to a special gnu-style inlining,
which uses different syntax.) Making the functions static makes sure
clang doesn't decide to discard a function because it's too large to
inline.
Thanks to eli.friedman for the patch.

Jeff Muizelaar posted some changes to the idct/reconstruction c code.
This is the equivalent update for the arm assembly.
This shows a good boost on v6, and a minor boost on neon.
Here are some numbers for highway in qcif, 2641 frames:
HEAD neon: ~161 fps
new neon: ~162 fps
HEAD v6: ~102 fps
new v6: ~106 fps
The following functions have been updated for armv6 and neon:
vp8_dc_only_idct_add
vp8_dequant_idct_add
vp8_dequant_dc_idct_add
Conflicts:
vp8/decoder/arm/armv6/dequantdcidct_v6.asm
vp8/decoder/arm/armv6/dequantidct_v6.asm
Resolved by removing these files. When I rewrote the functions, I also
moved the files to dequant_dc_idct_v6.asm/dequant_idct_v6.asm

This moves the prediction step before the idct and combines the idct and
reconstruction steps into a single step. Combining them seems to give an
overall decoder performance improvement of about 1%.

At the end of the decode, frame buffers were being copied.
The frames are not updated after the copy, they are just
for reference on later frames. This change allows multiple
references to the same frame buffer instead of copying it.
Changes needed to be made to the encoder to handle this. The
encoder is still doing frame buffer copies in similar places
where pointer reference could be done.

If the version script produced by the libvpx build system is not
used when linking a shared library on x86-64 Linux, the constant
data in the subpel filters produces R_X86_64_32 relocation errors
due to the use of wrt rip addressing instead of
wrt rip wrt ..gotpcrel.
Instead of adding a new macro for this addressing mode, this patch
sets the ELF visibility of these symbols to "hidden", which
allows wrt rip addressing to work without a text relocation.
This allows building a shared library without using the provided
build system or a separate version script.

Change bitreading functions to use a larger window which is refilled less
often.
This makes it cheap enough to do bounds checking each time the window is
refilled, which avoids the need to copy the input into a large circular
buffer.
This uses less memory and speeds up the total decode time by 1.6% on an ARM11,
2.8% on a Cortex A8, and 2.2% on x86-32, but less than 1% on x86-64.
Inlining vp8dx_bool_decoder_fill() has a big penalty on x86-32, as does moving
the refill loop to the front of vp8dx_decode_bool().
However, having the refill loop between computation of the split values and
the branch in vp8_decode_mb_tokens() is a big win on ARM (presumably due to
memory latency and code size: refilling after normalization duplicates the
code in the DECODE_AND_BRANCH_IF_ZERO and DECODE_AND_LOOP_IF_ZERO cases.
Unfortunately, refilling at the end of vp8dx_bool_decoder_fill() and at the
beginning of each decode step in vp8_decode_mb_tokens() means the latter
requires an extra refill at the end.
Platform-specific versions could avoid the problem, but would require most of
detokenize.c to be duplicated.

Restructure vp8_sixtap_predict functions to eliminate extra 5-line
calculation while doing first-pass only. Also, combline functions
to eliminate usage of intermediate buffer. This gives decoder a 3%

This patch removes the secondary MV clamping from the MV decoder. This
behavior was consistent with limits placed on non-split MVs by the
reference encoder, but was inconsistent with the MVs generated in the
split case.
The purpose of this secondary clamping was only to prevent crashes on
invalid data. It was not intended to be a behaviour an encoder could or
should rely on. Instead of doing additional clamping in a way that
changes the entropy context, the secondary clamp is removed and the
border handling is made implmentation specific. With respect to the
spec, the border is treated as essentially infinite, limited only by
the clamping performed on the near/nearest reference and the maximum
encodable magnitude of the residual MV.
This does not affect any currently produced streams.

This patch creates some basic infrastructure for doing bitstream-
incompatible changes to the VP8 encoder. The key parts are:
- --enable-experimental configure switch, to enable support for this
incompatible bitstream. This switch is required to be set to enable
any "experiments"
- A list for "experiments" which translate into --enable-<experiment>
options and CONFIG_<experiment> macros.
- The high bit of the "Version" field is used to indicate that the
bitstream was produced by an experimental encoder. The decoder will
fail to decode an experimental bitstream without
--enable-experimental.
- A new "vp8x" encoder interface is created to set the experimental
bit.
- The vp8x encoder interface is made the default for ivfenc in
experimental mode.

This renames the vpx_codec/ directory to vpx/, to allow applications
to more consistently reference these includes with the vpx/ prefix.
This allows the includes to be installed in /usr/local/include/vpx

excessive number of includes.
