Optimisation of Loops

Started by Unknown March 6, 2005
Hi,

yes, this is possible. Take care of automatic 64Bit copy and cache coherency
issues! writeback cacheable source memory and invalidate destination memory
before starting the transfer! see spru234.pdf for details

bye,

Thomas

That is clearly the source of the problem, but removing floating-point calls is not the only issue.  Division on the C64 is also a function call, so you will not get pipelining if there is any division left in your arithmetic (unless it is a shift-right – division by a power of 2).

The same goes for all C math functions – though some (such as abs) have a corresponding intrinsic inline function (such as _abs) which has ALMOST the same behaviour.

Hello

How can i display the 4.2.0 format in DM642 platform, will video port
support this???

Regards
Harsha


No video port only supports 4:2:2, so you will have to convert 4:2:0 to
4:2:2.

Dear Harsha and Others,

The following are good pointers to get an idea of the DM642 Video
Port and the FVID API.

1. spru629c.pdf
" TMS320C64x DSP Video Port/VCXO Interpolated Control (VIC) Port
Reference Guide "

2. spra918a.pdf:
"The TMS320DM642 Video Port Mini-Driver"

Hope this helps.
Cheers,
