- Short: 060 Patches for UMult64/SMult64
- Uploader: kakace@aix.pacwan.net (Didier Levet)
- Author: kakace@aix.pacwan.net (Didier Levet)
- Type: util/boot
-
- This is a small patch which replace the UMult64
- and SMult64 functions of utility.library V39+.
-
- These new functions are 2 times faster than the
- ones placed by 68060.library, and 4 times faster
- than the Trap emulation.
-
- Well, these functions are not often used, so
- don't expect an incredible speedup :))
- You can run SpeedTest (included) to see the
- benchmarks and to figure out if you really
- need to install these patches.
-
- I just write them to learn how to optimize 68060's
- code (sources included). So don't blame me if you
- think that the speed gain is useless ;-)
-
- Now, you only have to copy PatchMult64 in your
- "C:" directory, and add "C:PatchMult64" in your
- startup-sequence, right after Setpatch (or anywhere
- else, but not before).
- PatchMult64 sets the return code as follow :
- - 0 : Patches succesfully installed.
- - 5 : Patches already installed.
- - 10 : Unable to install the patches.
-
- That's all !
