  avcodec/vorbisenc : Combine codebooks, avoid relocations
  The Vorbis encoder has an array of a structure containing all
  
  the ingredients for a codebook ; this includes a pointer to
  
  the actual codebook and some even have a pointer to an array
  
  containing quant values. Each of these real codebooks is
  
  an array of its own.
  
  These pointers lead to relocations and therefore the array will
  
  be placed in .data.rel.ro and not in .rodata.
  This commit avoids the pointers altogether by combining all the actual
  
  codebooks into one big array ; the actual codebooks are now accessed
  
  consecutively by incrementing the pointer used to access them by the
  
  length of the actual codebook that has just been dealt with (said length
  
  is contained in the structure describing the codebook). There is
  
  no downside to this given that these codebooks are already only used
  
  once during init.

• avcodec/svq1enc : Use unsigned for parameter >= 0 to workaround GCC bug

  10 juillet 2022, par Andreas Rheinhardt

  avcodec/svq1enc : Use unsigned for parameter >= 0 to workaround GCC bug
  encode_block() in svq1enc.c looks like the following :
  static int encode_block(int block[7][256], int level)
  
  
  
      int best_score = 0 ;
  
      for (unsigned x = 0 ; x < level ; x++) 
  
          int v = block[1][x] ;
  
          block[level][x] = 0 ;
  
          best_score      += v * v ;
  
      
      if (level > 0 && best_score > 64) 
  
          int score = 0 ;
  
          score += encode_block(block, level - 1) ;
  
          score += encode_block(block, level - 1) ;
          if (score < best_score) 
  
              best_score = score ;
  
          
  
      
      return best_score ;
  
  
  When called from outside of encode_block(), it is always called with
  
  level == 5.
  This triggers a bug [1] in GCC : On -O3, it creates eight clones of
  
  encode_block with different values of level inlined into it. The clones
  
  with negative values are of course useless*, but they also lead to
  
   Warray-bounds warnings, because they access block[-1].
  This has been mitigated in GCC 12 : It no longer creates clones
  
  for parameters that it knows are impossible. Somehow switching levels
  
  to unsigned makes GCC know this. Therefore this commit does this.
  
  (For GCC 11, this changes the warning to "array subscript 4294967295 is
  
  above array bounds" from "array subscript -1 is below array bounds".)
  [1] : https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=102513
  * : These clones can actually be discarded when compiling with
  
   ffunction-sections.
