--- Comment #4 from GCC Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The master branch has been updated by Pengxuan Zheng <pzh...@gcc.gnu.org>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:a92f54f580c37732a5de01e47aed56882231f196 commit r15-3669-ga92f54f580c37732a5de01e47aed56882231f196 Author: Pengxuan Zheng <quic_pzh...@quicinc.com> Date: Tue Sep 10 17:59:46 2024 -0700 aarch64: Improve vector constant generation using SVE INDEX instruction [PR113328] SVE's INDEX instruction can be used to populate vectors by values starting from "base" and incremented by "step" for each subsequent value. We can take advantage of it to generate vector constants if TARGET_SVE is available and the base and step values are within [-16, 15]. For example, with the following function: typedef int v4si __attribute__ ((vector_size (16))); v4si f_v4si (void) { return (v4si){ 0, 1, 2, 3 }; } GCC currently generates: f_v4si: adrp x0, .LC4 ldr q0, [x0, #:lo12:.LC4] ret .LC4: .word 0 .word 1 .word 2 .word 3 With this patch, we generate an INDEX instruction instead if TARGET_SVE is available. f_v4si: index z0.s, #0, #1 ret PR target/113328 gcc/ChangeLog: * config/aarch64/aarch64.cc (aarch64_simd_valid_immediate): Improve handling of some ADVSIMD vectors by using SVE's INDEX if TARGET_SVE is available. (aarch64_output_simd_mov_immediate): Likewise. gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gcc.target/aarch64/sve/acle/general/dupq_1.c: Update test to use SVE's INDEX instruction. * gcc.target/aarch64/sve/acle/general/dupq_2.c: Likewise. * gcc.target/aarch64/sve/acle/general/dupq_3.c: Likewise. * gcc.target/aarch64/sve/acle/general/dupq_4.c: Likewise. * gcc.target/aarch64/sve/vec_init_3.c: New test.
