     45 //* @brief
     46 //*  This routine performs the default weighted prediction as described in sec
     47 //* 8.4.2.3.2 titled "Weighted sample prediction process" for luma.
     48 //*
     49 //* @par Description:
     50 //*  This function gets a ht x wd block, calculates the weighted sample, rounds
     51 //* off, adds offset and stores it in the destination block.
     52 //*
     53 //* @param[in] puc_src:
     54 //*  UWORD8 Pointer to the buffer containing the input block.
     55 //*
     56 //* @param[out] puc_dst
     57 //*  UWORD8 pointer to the destination where the output block is stored.
     58 //*
     59 //* @param[in] src_strd
     60 //*  Stride of the input buffer
     61 //*
     62 //* @param[in] dst_strd
     63 //*  Stride of the destination buffer
     64 //*
     65 //* @param[in] log_WD
     66 //*  number of bits to be rounded off
     67 //*
     68 //* @param[in] wt
     69 //*  weight for the weighted prediction
     70 //*
     71 //* @param[in] ofst
     72 //*  offset used after rounding off
     73 //*
     74 //* @param[in] ht
     75 //*  integer height of the array
     76 //*
     77 //* @param[in] wd
     78 //*  integer width of the array
     79 //*
     80 //* @returns
     81 //*  None
     82 //*
     83 //* @remarks
     84 //*  (ht,wd) can be (4,4), (4,8), (8,4), (8,8), (8,16), (16,8) or (16,16).

    277 //*
    278 //* @par Description:
    279 //*  This function gets a ht x wd block, calculates the weighted sample, rounds
    280 //* off, adds offset and stores it in the destination block for U and V.
    281 //*
    282 //* @param[in] puc_src:
    283 //*  UWORD8 Pointer to the buffer containing the input block.
    284 //*
    285 //* @param[out] puc_dst
    286 //*  UWORD8 pointer to the destination where the output block is stored.
    287 //*

    292 //*  Stride of the destination buffer
    293 //*
    294 //* @param[in] log_WD
    295 //*  number of bits to be rounded off
    296 //*
    297 //* @param[in] wt
    298 //*  weights for the weighted prediction for U and V
    299 //*
    300 //* @param[in] ofst
    301 //*  offsets used after rounding off for U and V
    302 //*
    303 //* @param[in] ht
    304 //*  integer height of the array
    305 //*
    306 //* @param[in] wd
    307 //*  integer width of the array
