The code and syntax used in this manual for function and variable declarations are written in the ANSI C style. However, versions of Intel IPP for different processors or operating systems may, of necessity, vary slightly.
Optimization Notice |
---|
The Intel® Integrated Performance Primitives (Intel® IPP) library contains functions that are more highly optimized for Intel microprocessors than for other microprocessors. While the functions in the Intel® IPP library offer optimizations for both Intel and Intel-compatible microprocessors, depending on your code and other factors, you will likely get extra performance on Intel microprocessors. While the paragraph above describes the basic optimization approach for the Intel® IPP library as a whole, the library may or may not be optimized to the same degree for non-Intel microprocessors for optimizations that are not unique to Intel microprocessors. These optimizations include Intel® Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (Intel® SSE2), Intel® Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (Intel® SSE3), and Supplemental Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (Intel® SSSE3) instruction sets and other optimizations. Intel does not guarantee the availability, functionality, or effectiveness of any optimization on microprocessors not manufactured by Intel. Microprocessor-dependent optimizations in this product are intended for use with Intel microprocessors. Intel recommends that you evaluate other library products to determine which best meets your requirements. |
In this manual, notational conventions include:
The following font conventions are used throughout this manual:
This type style |
Mixed with the uppercase in function names, code examples, and call statements, for example, ippsAdd_BNU. |
This type style |
Parameters in function prototype parameters and parameters description, for example, pCtx, pSrcMesg. |
The naming conventions for different items are the same as used by the Intel IPP software.
In this manual, each function is introduced by its short name (without the ipps prefix and descriptors) and a brief description of its purpose.
The ipps prefix in function names is always used in code examples and function prototypes. In the text, this prefix is omitted when referring to the function group.
