It has a quite nice high level programming model tbh. FastRPC is quite nice. And there's Halide support too.

- verditelabs 3y agoI used to work with the Halide guys from 2019-2021; I was on the TVM team. The compilers group was very proud of Halide's success in the early pixel phones. That was the library behind HDR+ on the Pixel 3. Hexagon is a difficult architecture to write code for but the benefits are worth it: it's the secret sauce for why Qualcomm's modems are so good. I see people getting all excited over AVX512 and I just think "well we had 2048 bit vectors years ago"
- nimish 3y agoIt is? And not any esoteric analog design? That explains the secrecy.
- jjtheblunt 3y agoex qualcomm qct compiler person here: qualcomm RF was so good even when Hexagon was being developed. if they moved their advantage onto Hexagon thereafter, that's cool.
