The following code contains two almost identical functions. The first one is
vectorized, but the second isn't.
typedef int __attribute ((aligned (16))) aint;
void test0(aint * __restrict a1) {
for (int i=0; i<640; ++i)
a1[i] = (a1[i] ? 2 : 1);
}
void test1(aint * __restrict a1) {
for (int i=0; i<640; ++i)
a1[i] = (a1[i] ? 0 : 1);
}
The most relevant part from the vectorization dump is probably:
vecttest.cpp:6: note: get vectype for scalar type: int
vecttest.cpp:6: note: get vectype with 4 units of type int
vecttest.cpp:6: note: vectype: vector int
vecttest.cpp:6: note: vectype: vector int
vecttest.cpp:6: note: nunits = 4
vecttest.cpp:6: note: ==> examining statement: D.2034_13 = D.2033_12 == 0
vecttest.cpp:6: note: get vectype for scalar type: bool
vecttest.cpp:6: note: get vectype with 16 units of type bool
vecttest.cpp:6: note: vectype: vector bool
vecttest.cpp:6: note: vectype: vector bool
vecttest.cpp:6: note: nunits = 16
vecttest.cpp:7: note: not vectorized: mixed data-types
vecttest.cpp:7: note: can't determine vectorization factor.
vecttest.cpp:6: note: vectorized 0 loops in function.
So probably an earlier optimization step prohibits vectorization in this case.
Using built-in specs.
