_set_SSE2_enable
Enables or disables the use of Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 Instructions (SSE2) instructions in CRT math routines.
int _set_SSE2_enable(
int flag
);
Parameters
- flag
1 for enabling the SSE2 implementation. 0 for disabling the SSE2 implementation. By default, SSE2 implementation is enabled on processors that support it.
Return Value
Nonzero if SSE2 implementation is enabled; zero if SSE2 implementation is disabled.
Remarks
The following functions have SSE2 implementations that can be enabled with _set_SSE2_enable:
The SSE2 implementation might give slightly different answers from the default implementations of these functions, because SSE2 intermediate values are 64-bit floating-point quantities but the default implementation intermediate values are 80-bit floating-point quantities.
The SSE2 implementation is only used if all exceptions are masked. Use _control87, _controlfp to mask exceptions.
