Hi,

here are some drive-by comments which you are free to take or leave.

To find more efficient ways to do this, you might want research Pixman
library. It's MIT licensed.

IIRC, the elementary operations there operate on pixel lines (pointer +
length), not individual pixels (image, x, y). Input conversion function
reads and converts a whole line a time. Blending function blends two
lines and writes the output into back one of the lines. Output
conversion function takes a line and converts it into destination
buffer. That way the elementary operations do not need to take stride
into account, and blending does not need to deal with varying memory
alignment FWIW. The inner loops involve much less function calls and
state, probably.

Pixman may not do exactly this, but it does something very similar.
Pixman also has multiple different levels of optimisations, which may
not be necessary for VKMS.

It's a trade-off between speed and temporary memory consumed. You need
temporary buffers for two lines, but not more (not a whole image in
full intermediate precision). Further optimisation could determine
whether to process whole image rows as lines, or split a row into
multiple lines to stay within CPU cache size.

Since it seems you are blending multiple planes into a single
destination which is assumed to be opaque, you might also be able to do
the multiple blends without convert-writing and read-converting to/from
the destination between every plane. I think that might be possible to
architect on top of the per-line operations still.

Pixel format, not color space.

I wonder if the compiler is smart enough to choose between "mul 257"
and "(v << 8) | v" operations... but that's probably totally drowning
under the overhead of per (x,y) looping.

This could be potentially expensive if the compiler ends up using an
actual div instruction.

Btw. this would be shorter to write as

(argb_src1 >> 16) & 0xffff

etc.

Thanks,
