Looks sane to me in general, but I prefer that Zoltan looks at the NEON stuff, he can give r+ or r- then :-)

You could expand isAlphaImage() here.

boxBlurNEON? Otherwise this makes no sense.
You could also expand isAlphaImage() here.

Because this patch just speed up the 4 channel mode. The alpha image is much complicated to optimize. Now I'm working on that problem, but anyway the hand written assembly didn't improve performance to much so that's why I fall back to the origin boxBlur when the image is an alpha image.

Yes, you're right I mistyped it, this is boxBlurNEON.

Since isAlphaImage() is known at this point, we should pass true to boxBlur and remove the bool argument from boxBlurNEON. If we ever make an alpha based version, it will have a different name, since the code cannot be shared.

We should not add using to a header file... We should use std:: if it is really needed.

Yes, I removed it.

Removed as well.

isAlphaImage() is true here!

ditto.

Thanks, I fixed those as well.
The patch landed. (http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/121900)
