[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 1/7] lavc/me_cmp: R-V V pix_abs

[flow gg]

I think in most cases it is like this, but specifically for this function,
using Reduction only once would be slower.

The currently submitted version roughly takes:
pix_abs_0_0_rvv_i32: 136.2

The version that uses Reduction only once takes:
pix_abs_0_0_rvv_i32: 169.2

Here is the implementation of the version that uses it only once:

func ff_pix_abs16_temp_rvv, zve32x
        vsetivli        zero, 16, e32, m4, ta, ma
        vmv.v.i         v24, 0
        vmv.s.x         v0, zero
1:
        vsetvli         zero, zero, e8, m1, tu, ma
        vle8.v          v4, (a1)
        vle8.v          v12, (a2)
        addi            a4, a4, -1
        vwsubu.vv       v16, v4, v12
        add             a1, a1, a3
        vwsubu.vv       v20, v12, v4
        vsetvli         zero, zero, e16, m2, tu, ma
        vmax.vv         v16, v16, v20
        add             a2, a2, a3
        vwadd.wv        v24, v24, v16
        bnez            a4, 1b

        vsetvli         zero, zero, e32, m4, ta, ma
        vwredsumu.vs    v0, v24, v0
        vmv.x.s         a0, v0
        ret
endfunc
