From 652613ab5ae4559b481c612010b407e1c2216f36 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aurelien Jarno Date: Tue, 1 Jan 2013 18:02:23 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] target-mips: add unions to access DSP elements Instead of playing with bit shifting, add two unions (one for 32-bit values, one for 64-bit ones) to access all the DSP elements with the correct type. This make the code easier to read and less error prone, and allow GCC to vectorize the code in some cases.
