Ingenic, a Chinese SoC CPU vendor, worked with ImgTec to add MXU (their MIPS32 SIMD extension) to MPlayer in an open source fork. However, they seem to insist that you reverse engineer their quirky instruction encodings…
There's a workaround called Enhanced Virtual Addressing (EVA) that was added in revision 3.5 of MIPS32: https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=144012041817764&w=2 I don't know whether it's a realistic solution, though.
I'm the student that contacted Miod and the one hosting these emails. No one has questioned this, but I got Miod's permission before sharing. I think his stance is reasonable. About a year ago, he converted the mips…
