MMX code for paint_funcs problem in OpenBSD/i386
Last modified: 2003-07-05 17:28:00 UTC
While testing gimp-1.3.11 and gimp-1.3.12 on OpenBSD/i386 , the build process give me error. ../../app/arch/i386/mmx/paint_funcs_mmx.S: Assembler messages: ../../app/arch/i386/mmx/paint_funcs_mmx.S:33: Error: Alignment too large: 15. assumed. [deleted] ../../app/arch/i386/mmx/paint_funcs_mmx.S:1430: Error: Alignment too large: 15. assumed. gmake[3]: *** [paint-funcs-simd.o] Error 1 gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/foo/bar/gimp-1.3.12/app/paint-funcs' workaround: I'm not really sure if this can be repeatable on other system, but by replacing the ``.align 16'' into ``.align 15'', might solving the compile problem in OpenBSD/i386.
Created attachment 14420 [details] [review] patch-app_arch_i386_mmx_paint_funcs_mmx_S
That code isn't even used because it is broken and now it starts to give compilation errors :-( We'd probably do best by removing the MMX code altogether as long as noone stands up who is able and willing to maintain it.
Could be closed now since the old MMX code has been removed from CVS HEAD?
