My God.. I love this part:
Ok, so I had some users complain about mmx2 being showed as enabled in mplayer despite the lack of mmxext in /proc/cpuinfo. Therefore I decided to get upstream help. Here's what we got...:
mmx2 = sse sse = mmx2
but in mplayer's configure script:
mmx2 = sse's integer logic sse = sse's floating point stuff
so mmx2 is NOT a flag for mmx2 support.. it's a flag for integer portion of sse...
ok, so at this point I'm confused as to how to approach this. What about AMD? Do they use mmxext for stuff like that.. or sse2 extensions (as someone mentioned). My plan is to have sse USE flag enable mmx2 only (since it's "the best") and disable sse (since it's the same thing but "worse"). However, that only takes care of intel.. what about AMD processors though? They deal with all this stuff differently. Recomendations are welcome at this point.. I'm going to get some asprin...
