== Linaro GCC == * Continued looking at element/structure load/store intrinsics improvements. Some good initial results: it looks like the plan of using "extra-wide" vectors for returning struct results works fine (at least to a first approximation). Sent off WIP patch (internally to CS only, so far).
Incidentally this looks like it'll be a good stepping-stone for the "RTL half" (vs. the "tree half") of the representation of element/structure loads/stores (e.g. vld2/vst2) also. The return type (for loads) and argument type (for stores) of the RTL patterns for such instructions is changed from the current wide-integer representation (OImode, etc.) to a suitable wide vector instead (e.g. V16QImode). This change might help lead to a more meaningful mapping from an equivalent tree form -- though we haven't quite got the whole picture yet, as the middle-end won't want to know about the ARM-specific and non-standard-named patterns for the element/structure loads/stores. (One might imagine a new standard-named RTL expander taking care of that though.) == Vacation == * Vacation Dec 20th-Jan 4th. _______________________________________________ linaro-toolchain mailing list linaro-toolchain@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-toolchain
