--- Comment #4 from CVS Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The master branch has been updated by Richard Sandiford <rsand...@gcc.gnu.org>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:10833849b55401a52f2334eb032a70beb688e9fc commit r12-5612-g10833849b55401a52f2334eb032a70beb688e9fc Author: Richard Sandiford <richard.sandif...@arm.com> Date: Tue Nov 30 09:52:29 2021 +0000 vect: Support gather loads with SLP This patch adds SLP support for IFN_GATHER_LOAD. Like the SLP support for IFN_MASK_LOAD, it works by treating only some of the arguments as child nodes. Unlike IFN_MASK_LOAD, it requires the other arguments (base, scale, and extension type) to be the same for all calls in the group. It does not require/expect the loads to be in a group (which probably wouldn't make sense for gathers). I was worried about the possible alias effect of moving gathers around to be part of the same SLP group. The patch therefore makes vect_analyze_data_ref_dependence treat gathers and scatters as a top-level concern, punting if the accesses aren't completely independent and if the user hasn't told us that a particular VF is safe. I think in practice we already punted in the same circumstances; the idea is just to make it more explicit. gcc/ PR tree-optimization/102467 * doc/sourcebuild.texi (vect_gather_load_ifn): Document. * tree-vect-data-refs.c (vect_analyze_data_ref_dependence): Commonize safelen handling.
