 **     Background
 *******************************************************************************

 libjpeg-turbo is a derivative of libjpeg which uses SIMD instructions (MMX,
 SSE2, etc.) to accelerate baseline JPEG compression and decompression on x86
 and x86-64 systems.  On such systems, libjpeg-turbo is generally 2-4x as fast
 as the unmodified version of libjpeg, all else being equal.

 libjpeg-turbo was originally based on libjpeg/SIMD by Miyasaka Masaru, but
 the TigerVNC and VirtualGL projects made numerous enhancements to the codec in
 2009, including improved support for Mac OS X, 64-bit support, support for
 32-bit and big endian pixel formats (RGBX, XBGR, etc.), accelerated Huffman
 encoding/decoding, and various bug fixes.  The goal was to produce a fully open
 source codec that could replace the partially closed source TurboJPEG/IPP codec
 used by VirtualGL and TurboVNC.  libjpeg-turbo generally performs in the range
 of 80-120% of TurboJPEG/IPP.  It is faster in some areas but slower in others.

 In early 2010, libjpeg-turbo spun off into its own independent project, with
 the goal of making high-speed JPEG compression/decompression technology
 available to a broader range of users and developers.  The libjpeg-turbo shared
 libraries can be used as drop-in replacements for libjpeg on most systems.

 **     Using libjpeg-turbo
 *******************************************************************************

 libjpeg-turbo includes two APIs which can be used to compress and decompress
 JPEG images:

   TurboJPEG/OSS:  This API wraps libjpeg-turbo and provides an easy-to-use
   interface for compressing and decompressing JPEG images in memory.  It also
   provides some features that would not be straightforward to implement using
   the underlying libjpeg API, such as generating planar YUV images and
   performing multiple simultaneous lossless transforms on an image.  The Java
   interface for libjpeg-turbo is written on top of TurboJPEG/OSS.

   libjpeg API:  This is the industry standard API for compressing and
   decompressing JPEG images.  It is more difficult to use than TurboJPEG/OSS
   but also more powerful.  libjpeg-turbo is both API/ABI-compatible and
   mathematically compatible with libjpeg v6b.  It can also optionally be
   configured to be API/ABI-compatible with libjpeg v7 and v8 (see below.)


 =============================
 Replacing libjpeg at Run Time
 =============================

 If a Unix application is dynamically linked with libjpeg, then you can replace
 libjpeg with libjpeg-turbo at run time by manipulating LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
 For instance:

   [Using libjpeg]
   > time cjpeg <vgl_5674_0098.ppm >vgl_5674_0098.jpg
   real  0m0.392s
   user  0m0.074s
   sys   0m0.020s

   [Using libjpeg-turbo]
   > export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/libjpeg-turbo/{lib}:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
   > time cjpeg <vgl_5674_0098.ppm >vgl_5674_0098.jpg
   real  0m0.109s
   user  0m0.029s
   sys   0m0.010s

 NOTE: {lib} can be lib, lib32, lib64, or lib/64, depending on the O/S and
 architecture.

 System administrators can also replace the libjpeg sym links in /usr/{lib} with
 links to the libjpeg dynamic library located in /opt/libjpeg-turbo/{lib}.  This
 will effectively accelerate every dynamically linked libjpeg application on the
 system.

 The libjpeg-turbo SDK for Visual C++ installs the libjpeg-turbo DLL
 (jpeg62.dll, jpeg7.dll, or jpeg8.dll, depending on whether libjpeg v6b, v7, or
 v8 emulation is enabled) into c:\libjpeg-turbo[64]\bin, and the PATH
 environment variable can be modified such that this directory is searched
 before any others that might contain a libjpeg DLL.  However, if a libjpeg
 DLL exists in an application's install directory, then Windows will load this
 DLL first whenever the application is launched.  Thus, if an application ships
 with jpeg62.dll, jpeg7.dll, or jpeg8.dll, then back up the application's
 version of this DLL and copy c:\libjpeg-turbo[64]\bin\jpeg*.dll into the
 application's install directory to accelerate it.

 The version of the libjpeg-turbo DLL distributed in the libjpeg-turbo SDK for
 Visual C++ requires the Visual C++ 2008 C run time DLL (msvcr90.dll).
 msvcr90.dll ships with more recent versions of Windows, but users of older
 Windows releases can obtain it from the Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable
 Package, which is available as a free download from Microsoft's web site.

 NOTE:  Features of libjpeg which require passing a C run time structure, such
 as a file handle, from an application to libjpeg will probably not work with
 the version of the libjpeg-turbo DLL distributed in the libjpeg-turbo SDK for
 Visual C++, unless the application is also built to use the Visual C++ 2008 C
 run time DLL.  In particular, this affects jpeg_stdio_dest() and
 jpeg_stdio_src().

 Mac applications typically embed their own copies of the libjpeg dylib inside
 the (hidden) application bundle, so it is not possible to globally replace
 libjpeg on OS X systems.  If an application uses a shared library version of
 libjpeg, then it may be possible to replace the application's version of it.
 This would generally involve copying libjpeg.*.dylib from libjpeg-turbo into
 the appropriate place in the application bundle and using install_name_tool to
 repoint the dylib to the new directory.  This requires an advanced knowledge of
 OS X and would not survive an upgrade or a re-install of the application.
 Thus, it is not recommended for most users.

 =======================
 Replacing TurboJPEG/IPP
 =======================

 libjpeg-turbo is a drop-in replacement for the TurboJPEG/IPP SDK used by
 VirtualGL 2.1.x and TurboVNC 0.6 (and prior.)  libjpeg-turbo contains a wrapper
 library (TurboJPEG/OSS) that emulates the TurboJPEG API using libjpeg-turbo
 instead of the closed source Intel Performance Primitives.  You can replace the
 TurboJPEG/IPP package on Linux systems with the libjpeg-turbo package in order
 to make existing releases of VirtualGL 2.1.x and TurboVNC 0.x use the new codec
 at run time.  Note that the 64-bit libjpeg-turbo packages contain only 64-bit
 binaries, whereas the TurboJPEG/IPP 64-bit packages contained both 64-bit and
 32-bit binaries.  Thus, to replace a TurboJPEG/IPP 64-bit package, install
 both the 64-bit and 32-bit versions of libjpeg-turbo.

 You can also build the VirtualGL 2.1.x and TurboVNC 0.6 source code with
 the libjpeg-turbo SDK instead of TurboJPEG/IPP.  It should work identically.
 libjpeg-turbo also includes static library versions of TurboJPEG/OSS, which
 are used to build TurboVNC 1.0 and later.

 ========================================
 Using libjpeg-turbo in Your Own Programs
 ========================================

 For the most part, libjpeg-turbo should work identically to libjpeg, so in
 most cases, an application can be built against libjpeg and then run against
 libjpeg-turbo.  On Unix systems (including Cygwin), you can build against
 libjpeg-turbo instead of libjpeg by setting

   CPATH=/opt/libjpeg-turbo/include
   and
   LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/libjpeg-turbo/{lib}

 ({lib} = lib32 or lib64, depending on whether you are building a 32-bit or a
 64-bit application.)

 If using MinGW, then set

   CPATH=/c/libjpeg-turbo-gcc[64]/include
   and
   LIBRARY_PATH=/c/libjpeg-turbo-gcc[64]/lib

 Building against libjpeg-turbo is useful, for instance, if you want to build an
 application that leverages the libjpeg-turbo colorspace extensions (see below.)
 On Linux and Solaris systems, you would still need to manipulate
 LD_LIBRARY_PATH or create appropriate sym links to use libjpeg-turbo at run
 time.  On such systems, you can pass -R /opt/libjpeg-turbo/{lib} to the linker
 to force the use of libjpeg-turbo at run time rather than libjpeg (also useful
 if you want to leverage the colorspace extensions), or you can link against the
 libjpeg-turbo static library.

 To force a Linux, Solaris, or MinGW application to link against the static
 version of libjpeg-turbo, you can use the following linker options:

   -Wl,-Bstatic -ljpeg -Wl,-Bdynamic

 On OS X, simply add /opt/libjpeg-turbo/lib/libjpeg.a to the linker command
 line (this also works on Linux and Solaris.)

 To build Visual C++ applications using libjpeg-turbo, add
 c:\libjpeg-turbo[64]\include to the system or user INCLUDE environment
 variable and c:\libjpeg-turbo[64]\lib to the system or user LIB environment
 variable, and then link against either jpeg.lib (to use the DLL version of
 libjpeg-turbo) or jpeg-static.lib (to use the static version of libjpeg-turbo.)

 =====================
 Colorspace Extensions
 =====================

 libjpeg-turbo includes extensions which allow JPEG images to be compressed
 directly from (and decompressed directly to) buffers which use BGR, BGRX,
 RGBX, XBGR, and XRGB pixel ordering.  This is implemented with six new
 colorspace constants:

   JCS_EXT_RGB   /* red/green/blue */
   JCS_EXT_RGBX  /* red/green/blue/x */
   JCS_EXT_BGR   /* blue/green/red */
   JCS_EXT_BGRX  /* blue/green/red/x */
   JCS_EXT_XBGR  /* x/blue/green/red */
   JCS_EXT_XRGB  /* x/red/green/blue */

 Setting cinfo.in_color_space (compression) or cinfo.out_color_space
 (decompression) to one of these values will cause libjpeg-turbo to read the
 red, green, and blue values from (or write them to) the appropriate position in
 the pixel when YUV conversion is performed.

 Your application can check for the existence of these extensions at compile
 time with:

   #ifdef JCS_EXTENSIONS

 At run time, attempting to use these extensions with a version of libjpeg
 that doesn't support them will result in a "Bogus input colorspace" error.

 =================================
 libjpeg v7 and v8 API/ABI support
 =================================

 libjpeg v7 and v8 added new features to the API/ABI, and, unfortunately, the
 compression and decompression structures were extended in a backward-
 incompatible manner to accommodate these features.  Thus, programs which are
 built to use libjpeg v7 or v8 did not work with libjpeg-turbo, since it is
 based on the libjpeg v6b code base.  Although libjpeg v7 and v8 are still not
 as widely used as v6b, enough programs (including a few Linux distros) have
 made the switch that it was desirable to provide support for the libjpeg v7/v8
 API/ABI in libjpeg-turbo.

 Some of the libjpeg v7 and v8 features -- DCT scaling, to name one -- involve
 deep modifications to the code which cannot be accommodated by libjpeg-turbo
 without either breaking compatibility with libjpeg v6b or producing an
 unsupportable mess.  In order to fully support libjpeg v8 with all of its
 features, we would have to essentially port the SIMD extensions to the libjpeg
 v8 code base and maintain two separate code trees.  We are hesitant to do this
 until/unless the newer libjpeg code bases garner more community support and
 involvement and until/unless we have some notion of whether future libjpeg
 releases will also be backward-incompatible.

 By passing an argument of --with-jpeg7 or --with-jpeg8 to configure, or an
 argument of -DWITH_JPEG7=1 or -DWITH_JPEG8=1 to cmake, you can build a version
 of libjpeg-turbo which emulates the libjpeg v7 or v8 API/ABI, so that programs
 which are built against libjpeg v7 or v8 can be run with libjpeg-turbo.  The
 following section describes which libjpeg v7+ features are supported and which
 aren't.

 libjpeg v7 and v8 Features:
 ---------------------------

 Fully supported:

 -- cjpeg: Separate quality settings for luminance and chrominance
    Note that the libpjeg v7+ API was extended to accommodate this feature only
    for convenience purposes.  It has always been possible to implement this
    feature with libjpeg v6b (see rdswitch.c for an example.)

 -- cjpeg: 32-bit BMP support

 -- jpegtran: lossless cropping

 -- jpegtran: -perfect option

 -- rdjpgcom: -raw option

 -- rdjpgcom: locale awareness


 Fully supported when using libjpeg v7/v8 emulation:

 -- libjpeg: In-memory source and destination managers


 Not supported:

 -- libjpeg: DCT scaling in compressor
    cinfo.scale_num and cinfo.scale_denom are silently ignored.

 -- libjpeg: IDCT scaling extensions in decompressor
    libjpeg-turbo still supports IDCT scaling with scaling factors of 1/2, 1/4,
    and 1/8 (same as libjpeg v6b.)

 -- libjpeg: Fancy downsampling in compressor
    cinfo.do_fancy_downsampling is silently ignored.

 -- jpegtran: Scaling
    Seems to depend on the DCT scaling feature, which isn't supported.


 *******************************************************************************
 **     Performance pitfalls
 *******************************************************************************

 ===============
 Restart Markers
 ===============

 The optimized Huffman decoder in libjpeg-turbo does not handle restart markers
 in a way that makes libjpeg happy, so it is necessary to use the slow Huffman
 decoder when decompressing a JPEG image that has restart markers.  This can
 cause the decompression performance to drop by as much as 20%, but the
 performance will still be much much greater than that of libjpeg v6b.  Many
 consumer packages, such as PhotoShop, use restart markers when generating JPEG
 images, so images generated by those programs will experience this issue.

 ===============================================
 Fast Integer Forward DCT at High Quality Levels
 ===============================================

 The algorithm used by the SIMD-accelerated quantization function cannot produce
 correct results whenever the fast integer forward DCT is used along with a JPEG
 quality of 98-100.  Thus, libjpeg-turbo must use the non-SIMD quantization
 function in those cases.  This causes performance to drop by as much as 40%.
 It is therefore strongly advised that you use the slow integer forward DCT
 whenever encoding images with a JPEG quality of 98 or higher.

	of libjpeg-turbo which emulates the libjpeg v7 or v8 API/ABI, so that programs
	which are built against libjpeg v7 or v8 can be run with libjpeg-turbo. The
	following section describes which libjpeg v7+ features are supported and which
	aren't.

	libjpeg v7 and v8 Features:
	---------------------------

	Fully supported:

	-- cjpeg: Separate quality settings for luminance and chrominance
	Note that the libpjeg v7+ API was extended to accommodate this feature only
	for convenience purposes. It has always been possible to implement this
	feature with libjpeg v6b (see rdswitch.c for an example.)

	-- cjpeg: 32-bit BMP support

	-- jpegtran: lossless cropping

	-- jpegtran: -perfect option

	-- rdjpgcom: -raw option

	-- rdjpgcom: locale awareness


	Fully supported when using libjpeg v7/v8 emulation:

	-- libjpeg: In-memory source and destination managers


	Not supported:

	-- libjpeg: DCT scaling in compressor
	cinfo.scale_num and cinfo.scale_denom are silently ignored.

	-- libjpeg: IDCT scaling extensions in decompressor
	libjpeg-turbo still supports IDCT scaling with scaling factors of 1/2, 1/4,
	and 1/8 (same as libjpeg v6b.)

	-- libjpeg: Fancy downsampling in compressor
	cinfo.do_fancy_downsampling is silently ignored.

	-- jpegtran: Scaling
	Seems to depend on the DCT scaling feature, which isn't supported.

	** Performance pitfalls

	===============
	Restart Markers
	===============

	The optimized Huffman decoder in libjpeg-turbo does not handle restart markers
	in a way that makes libjpeg happy, so it is necessary to use the slow Huffman
	decoder when decompressing a JPEG image that has restart markers. This can
	cause the decompression performance to drop by as much as 20%, but the
	performance will still be much much greater than that of libjpeg v6b. Many
	consumer packages, such as PhotoShop, use restart markers when generating JPEG
	images, so images generated by those programs will experience this issue.

	===============================================
	Fast Integer Forward DCT at High Quality Levels
	===============================================

	The algorithm used by the SIMD-accelerated quantization function cannot produce
	correct results whenever the fast integer forward DCT is used along with a JPEG
	quality of 98-100. Thus, libjpeg-turbo must use the non-SIMD quantization
	function in those cases. This causes performance to drop by as much as 40%.
	It is therefore strongly advised that you use the slow integer forward DCT
	whenever encoding images with a JPEG quality of 98 or higher.
