List of missing vector interfaces

Version 1.1 of the Power Architecture 64-Bit ELF V2 ABI Specification:
OpenPOWER ABI for Linux Supplement contains an appendix describing built-in
functions for vector programming that compliant compilers should implement. 
GCC currently supports most of these, but a significant number are not yet
implemented.  A full list of missing interfaces is attached.

Intended semantics for the interfaces are described in Appendix A of the ABI
document, which can be obtained here: 
https://www-03.ibm.com/technologyconnect/tgcm/TGCMServlet.wss?alias=OpenPOWER. 
(Unfortunately free registration is still required to access the document at
this site, but you will not be spammed as a result.)
