Applications/libraries using NEON?

Hi,

Does anyone know of any apps and/or libraries that use NEON
instructions that I can use to test my binutils/gcc combo? I haven't
found any patches for the usual suspects (libm, liboil, fftw) yet :frowning:

regards,

Koen

There seems to be some demo codecs for download after registration from ARM

(search for "NEON" on that page)

Software Tools - Development Tools - Arm Development Studio – Arm®

Great, now I just have to convince their perl based buildsystem to use
gcc and gas instead of armcc and armasm....

I believe those libraries are only for the OpenMAX DL functions, not
full-blown codecs. They should be very helpful for those implementing
codecs to provide some good optimizations for Cortex-A8+NEON.
