The JSIMD_FORCE* environment variables previously meant "force the use
of this instruction set if it is available but others are available as
well", but that did nothing on ARM platforms, since there is only ever
one instruction set available. Since the ARM and MIPS CPU feature
detection code is less than bulletproof, and since there is only one
SIMD instruction set (currently) supported on those platforms, it makes
sense for the JSIMD_FORCE* environment variables on those platforms to
actually force the use of the SIMD instruction set, thus bypassing the
CPU feature detection code.
This addresses a concern raised in #88 whereby parsing /proc/cpuinfo
didn't work within a QEMU environment. This at least provides a
workaround, allowing users to force-enable or force-disable SIMD
instructions for ARM and MIPS builds of libjpeg-turbo.
The IJG convention is to format copyright notices as:
Copyright (C) YYYY, Owner.
We try to maintain this convention for any code that is part of the
libjpeg API library (with the exception of preserving the copyright
notices from Cendio's code verbatim, since those predate
libjpeg-turbo.)
Note that the phrase "All Rights Reserved" is no longer necessary, since
all Buenos Aires Convention signatories signed onto the Berne Convention
in 2000. However, our convention is to retain this phrase for any files
that have a self-contained copyright header but to leave it off of any
files that refer to another file for conditions of distribution and use.
For instance, all of the non-SIMD files in the libjpeg API library refer
to README.ijg, and the copyright message in that file contains "All
Rights Reserved", so it is unnecessary to add it to the individual
files.
The TurboJPEG code retains my preferred formatting convention for
copyright notices, which is based on that of VirtualGL (where the
TurboJPEG API originated.)
The convention used by libjpeg:
type * variable;
is not very common anymore, because it looks too much like
multiplication. Some (particularly C++ programmers) prefer to tuck the
pointer symbol against the type:
type* variable;
to emphasize that a pointer to a type is effectively a new type.
However, this can also be confusing, since defining multiple variables
on the same line would not work properly:
type* variable1, variable2; /* Only variable1 is actually a
pointer. */
This commit reformats the entirety of the libjpeg-turbo code base so
that it uses the same code formatting convention for pointers that the
TurboJPEG API code uses:
type *variable1, *variable2;
This seems to be the most common convention among C programmers, and
it is the convention used by other codec libraries, such as libpng and
libtiff.
... and only if ThunderX is detected. This can be easily expanded later
on to include other CPUs that are known to suffer from slow LD3/ST3, but
it doesn't make sense to disable LD3/ST3 for all non-Android Linux
platforms just because ThunderX is slow.
Full-color compression speedups relative to previous commits:
Cortex-A53 (Nexus 5X), Android, 64-bit: 1.1-13% (avg. 6.0%)
Cortex-A57 (Nexus 5X), Android, 64-bit: 0.0-22% (avg. 6.3%)
Refer to #47 and #50 for discussion
Closes#50
Note that this commit introduces a similar /proc/cpuinfo parser to that
of the ARM32 implementation. It is used to specifically check whether
the code is running on Cavium ThunderX and, if so, disable the ARM64
SIMD Huffman routines (which slow performance by an average of 8% on
that CPU.)

This adds 64-bit NEON coverage for all of the algorithms that are
covered by the 32-bit NEON implementation, except for h2v1 (4:2:2) fancy
upsampling (used when decompressing 4:2:2 JPEG images.) It also adds
64-bit NEON SIMD coverage for:
* slow integer forward DCT (compressor)
* h2v2 (4:2:0) downsampling (compressor)
* h2v1 (4:2:2) downsampling (compressor)
which are not covered in the 32-bit implementation.
Compression speedups relative to libjpeg-turbo 1.4.2:
Apple A7 (iPhone 5S), iOS, 64-bit: 113-150% (reported)
48-core ThunderX (RunAbove ARM Cloud), Linux, 64-bit: 2.1-33% (avg. 15%)
Refer to #44 and #49 for discussion
This commit also removes the unnecessary
if (simd_support & JSIMD_ARM_NEON)
statements from the jsimd* algorithm functions. Since the jsimd_can*()
functions check for the existence of NEON, the corresponding algorithm
functions will never be called if NEON isn't available.

Refer to #42 for discussion. Numerous other approaches were attempted,
but this one proved to be the most performant across all platforms.
This commit also fixes#3 (works around, really-- the clang-compiled version
of jchuff.c still performs 20% worse than its GCC-compiled counterpart, but
that code is now bypassed by the new SSE2 Huffman algorithm.)

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: Faster NEON yuv->rgb conversion for Krait and Cortex-A15
The older code was developed and tested only on ARM Cortex-A8 and ARM Cortex-A9.
Tuning it for newer ARM processors can introduce some speed-up (up to 20%).
The performance of the inner loop (conversion of 8 pixels) improves from
~27 cycles down to ~22 cycles on Qualcomm Krait 300, and from ~20 cycles
down to ~18 cycles on ARM Cortex-A15.
The performance remains exactly the same on ARM Cortex-A7 (~58 cycles),
ARM Cortex-A8 (~25 cycles) and ARM Cortex-A9 (~30 cycles) processors.
Also use larger indentation in the source code for separating two independent
instruction streams.
