Packit 5c3484
This directory contains code for x86-64 processors with fast
Packit 5c3484
implementations of SSE operations, hence the name "fastsse".

Current processors that might benefit from this code are:
Packit 5c3484
Packit 5c3484
  AMD K10
Packit 5c3484
  AMD Bulldozer/Piledriver/Steamroller/Excavator
Packit 5c3484
  Intel Nocona
Packit 5c3484
  Intel Nehalem/Westmere
Packit 5c3484
  Intel Sandybridge/Ivybridge
Packit 5c3484
  Intel Haswell/Broadwell
Packit 5c3484
  VIA Nano
Packit 5c3484
Packit 5c3484
Current processors that do not benefit from this code are:
Packit 5c3484
Packit 5c3484
  AMD K8
Packit 5c3484
  AMD Bobcat
Packit 5c3484
  Intel Atom
Packit 5c3484
Packit 5c3484
Intel Conroe/Penryn is a border case; its handling of non-aligned
Packit 5c3484
128-bit memory operands is poor.  VIA Nano also have poor handling of
Packit 5c3484
non-aligned operands.
