Currently, expand_vector_conversion uses VEC_PACK_TRUNC_EXPR ---------------cut begins------------------------ else if (modifier == NARROW) { switch (code) { CASE_CONVERT: code1 = VEC_PACK_TRUNC_EXPR; optab1 = optab_for_tree_code (code1, arg_type, optab_default); break; ---------------Cut ends------------------------ But BB vectorizer can do the right thing for void foo (long long* a, int* b) { b[0] = a[0]; b[1] = a[1]; b[2] = a[2]; b[3] = a[3]; } vmovdqu ymm0, YMMWORD PTR [rdi] vpmovqd XMMWORD PTR [rsi], ymm0 vzeroupper ret vect__1.5_16 = MEM <vector(4) long long int> [(long long int *)a_10(D)]; vect__2.6_18 = (vector(4) int) vect__1.5_16; # DEBUG BEGIN_STMT # DEBUG BEGIN_STMT # DEBUG BEGIN_STMT MEM <vector(4) int> [(int *)b_11(D)] = vect__2.6_18; return; Guess expand_vector_conversion can be optimized.
