--- Comment #7 from Uros Bizjak <ubizjak at gmail dot com> 2012-08-22 22:26:22 UTC --- Please note that there is currently no way to generate OImode directly: $ more oi.c typedef int OItype __attribute__ ((mode (OI))); OItype test (OItype a) { return a; } $ gcc -O2 -mavx oi.c oi.c:1:1: error: unable to emulate ‘OI’
