TILER is a hardware block made by Texas Instruments. ?Its purpose is to organize video/image memory in a 2-dimensional fashion to limit memory bandwidth and facilitate 0 effort rotation and mirroring. ?The TILER driver facilitates allocating, freeing, as well as mapping 2D blocks (areas) in the TILER container(s). ?It also facilitates rotating and mirroring the allocated blocks or its rectangular subsections.
Pretty cool hardware! (...)
* Add multiple search directions to TCM-SiTA * Add 1D block support (including adding 1D search algo to TCM-SiTA)
Spell out these acronyms. I've been writing some code for the ARM TCM (Tightly Coupled Memory) and often vendors pick up this terminology and call all on-chip memory "TCM", though it has a specific technical meaning in ARM context. What does TCM mean in your case? And what is SiTA? Yours, Linus Walleij
