prefixing. This adds an API to set optimization options externally,
providing an alternative and general solution for the non-portable
run-time tests used by the ARM Neon code. It also makes those tests
compile and link on Android. The order of settings vs options in
pnglibconf.h is reversed to allow settings to depend on options and
options can now set (or override) the defaults for settings.
Allow run-time ARM NEON checking to be disabled. A new configure option:
--enable-arm-neon=always will stop the run-time checks. New checks
within arm/arm_init.c will cause the code not to be compiled unless
__ARM_NEON__ is set. This should make it fail safe (if someone asks
for it on then the build will fail if it can't be done.)
the massive speed improvements use a make capable of parallel builds
on a multi-CPU machine and pass the right arguments to make (-j10000
for GNU make) to get the build to run in parallel.
on SUN OS cc 5.9, which demonstrates the tokenization problem previously
avoided by using /lib/cpp. Since all .dfn output is now protected
in double quotes unless it is to be macro substituted the fix should work
everywhere.
sCAL APIs; some of these use floating point arithmetic so they need to be
disabled if floating point arithmetic is switched off. This is a quiet API
change - previously it appeared that the APIs were supported if fixed point
arithmetic was used internally, however they required certain APIs (floor,
modf, frexp, atof) that are part of C floating point support. Changed
png_fixed and the gamma code specific version of the same to avoid floor(),
which may be a library function (not an intrinsic). Removed unused #if 0
code.
png_handle_unknown() when SAVE support is absent. Moved the shell test
scripts for contrib/libtests from the libpng top directory to contrib/libtests.
png_handle_unknown() must always read or skip the chunk, if
SAVE_UNKNOWN_CHUNKS is turned off *and* the application does not set
a user callback an unknown chunk will not be read, leading to a read
error, which was revealed by the "tunknown" test.
