Niklas Haas a785ff4ca2 swscale/x86/ops: add AVX512 vpermb packed shuffle path
We can quite easily generalize the existing AVX512 pushfb implementation to
support vpermb when the shuffle mask is cross-lane.

  rgb24 1920x1080 -> rgba 1920x1080, speedup=1.372x faster

This does require some finesse w.r.t. the MOVSIZE macro, to avoid reading or
writing too many bits. In particular, for gray->rgba64le, the pattern even
devolves into 8/64 which would trigger an illegal operand error when combining
movq with zmm registers.

Other than that, we can use {k1}{z} zero masking to cleanly recreate the
semantics of pushfb's implicit zero masking, except for non-zero clear
values where we continue doing what we already do.

Lastly, while EVEX-encoded vpermb can take the source operand directly, this
somewhat defeats the purpose of the READ size optimization; in practice it
was better to keep the read and vpermb separate.

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.
