Andreas Rheinhardt 835781af23 configure,swscale/x86/Makefile: Remove special red-zone handling
ff_h[yc]scale_fast_mmxext() call other functions from inline assembly;
these functions look like leaf functions to GCC, so it may use the
red zone to avoid modifying the stack. But this makes the call
instructions in the inline asm corrupt the stack.

In order to fix this 424bcc46b5
made libswscale/x86/swscale_mmx.o be compiled with -mno-red-zone.
Later Libav fixed it in their version in commit
b14fa5572c by saving and restoring
the memory clobbered by the call (as is still done now). This was
merged into FFmpeg in 0e7fc3cafe,
without touching the -mno-red-zone hack.

Libav later renamed swscale_mmx.c to just swscale.c in
16d2a1a51c which was merged into FFmpeg
in commit 2cb4d51654, without
removing the -mno-red-zone hack, although the file it applies to
no longer existed.

This commit removes the special red-zone handling given that it is
inactive anyway.

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.
