◆ AV_QSORT

#define AV_QSORT (   p,
  num,
  type,
  cmp 
)

Quicksort This sort is fast, and fully inplace but not stable and it is possible to construct input that requires O(n^2) time but this is very unlikely to happen with non constructed input.

◆ AV_MSORT

#define AV_MSORT (   p,
  tmp,
  num,
  type,
  cmp 
)
Value:
do {\
unsigned i, j, step;\
for(step=1; step<(num); step+=step){\
for(i=0; i<(num); i+=2*step){\
unsigned a[2] = {i, i+step};\
unsigned end = FFMIN(i+2*step, (num));\
for(j=i; a[0]<i+step && a[1]<end; j++){\
int idx= cmp(p+a[0], p+a[1]) > 0;\
tmp[j] = p[ a[idx]++ ];\
}\
if(a[0]>=i+step) a[0] = a[1];\
for(; j<end; j++){\
tmp[j] = p[ a[0]++ ];\
}\
}\
FFSWAP(type*, p, tmp);\
}\
} while (0)

Merge sort, this sort requires a temporary buffer and is stable, its worst case time is O(n log n)

Parameters
pmust be a lvalue pointer, this function may exchange it with tmp
tmpmust be a lvalue pointer, this function may exchange it with p

step
trying all byte sequences megabyte in length and selecting the best looking sequence will yield cases to try But a word about which is also called distortion Distortion can be quantified by almost any quality measurement one chooses the sum of squared differences is used but more complex methods that consider psychovisual effects can be used as well It makes no difference in this discussion First step

it s the only field you need to keep assuming you have a context There is some magic you don t need to care about around this just let it vf type

a
The reader does not expect b to be semantically here and if the code is changed by maybe adding a a division or other the signedness will almost certainly be mistaken To avoid this confusion a new type was SUINT is the C unsigned type but it holds a signed int to use the same example SUINT a
