And in fact that is exactly what we do: public class Test { static int RANGE = 1024*1024; public static void main(String[] args) { byte[] aB = new byte[RANGE]; byte[] bB = new byte[RANGE]; for (int i = 0; i < 100_000; i++) { test1(aB, bB); } } static void test1(byte[] a, byte[] b) { for (int i = 0; i < RANGE; i++) { a[i] = b[i]; } } } `../java -XX:CompileCommand=compileonly,Test::test* -XX:CompileCommand=printcompilation,Test::test* -XX:+TraceLoopOpts -XX:-TraceSuperWord -XX:+TraceNewVectors -Xbatch -XX:+AlignVector -XX:CompileCommand=compileonly,Test::test* -XX:CompileCommand=printassembly,Test::test* Test.java` ;; B20: # out( B20 B21 ) <- in( B19 B20 ) Loop( B20-B20 inner main of N178 strip mined) Freq: 8.13586e+09 0x00007fc3a4bb0780: movslq %ebx,%rdi 0x00007fc3a4bb0783: movslq %ebx,%r14 0x00007fc3a4bb0786: vmovdqu32 0x10(%r13,%r14,1),%zmm1 0x00007fc3a4bb0791: vmovdqu32 %zmm1,0x10(%r9,%r14,1) 0x00007fc3a4bb079c: vmovdqu32 0x50(%r13,%rdi,1),%zmm1 0x00007fc3a4bb07a7: vmovdqu32 %zmm1,0x50(%r9,%rdi,1) 0x00007fc3a4bb07b2: vmovdqu32 0x90(%r13,%rdi,1),%zmm1 0x00007fc3a4bb07bd: vmovdqu32 %zmm1,0x90(%r9,%rdi,1) 0x00007fc3a4bb07c8: vmovdqu32 0xd0(%r13,%rdi,1),%zmm1 0x00007fc3a4bb07d3: vmovdqu32 %zmm1,0xd0(%r9,%rdi,1) 0x00007fc3a4bb07de: vmovdqu32 0x110(%r13,%rdi,1),%zmm1 0x00007fc3a4bb07e9: vmovdqu32 %zmm1,0x110(%r9,%rdi,1) 0x00007fc3a4bb07f4: vmovdqu32 0x150(%r13,%rdi,1),%zmm1 0x00007fc3a4bb07ff: vmovdqu32 %zmm1,0x150(%r9,%rdi,1) 0x00007fc3a4bb080a: vmovdqu32 0x190(%r13,%rdi,1),%zmm1 0x00007fc3a4bb0815: vmovdqu32 %zmm1,0x190(%r9,%rdi,1) 0x00007fc3a4bb0820: vmovdqu32 0x1d0(%r13,%rdi,1),%zmm1 0x00007fc3a4bb082b: vmovdqu32 %zmm1,0x1d0(%r9,%rdi,1) ;*bastore {reexecute=0 rethrow=0 return_oop=0} ; - Test::test1@14 (line 14) 0x00007fc3a4bb0836: add $0x200,%ebx ;*iinc {reexecute=0 rethrow=0 return_oop=0} ; - Test::test1@15 (line 13) 0x00007fc3a4bb083c: cmp %r11d,%ebx 0x00007fc3a4bb083f: jl 0x00007fc3a4bb0780 ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/20677#issuecomment-2483305049
