Faster Matrix Identity

By using MMX we can increase the speed of a matrix identity operation.

  • emms - begin or end using MMX
  • movd - move a 32 bit number into an MMX register (MMX registers are 64 bit)
  • movq - move a 64 bit number to or from an MMX register
  • 0x3F800000 - This is the 32 bit hex number that represents a floating point 1.0
    inline Matrix4& ToIdentity()
    {
        _asm
        {
            emms
            mov esi,[this.m_val]
            mov ebx,0
            movd mm1, ebx
            movq [esi],mm1
            movq [esi+8],mm1
            movq [esi+16],mm1
            movq [esi+24],mm1
            movq [esi+32],mm1
