Bug ID: 101846 Summary: Improve __builtin_shufflevector emitted code Product: gcc Version: 12.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: target Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: jakub at gcc dot gnu.org Target Milestone: --- typedef short v16hi __attribute__((vector_size (32))); typedef short v32hi __attribute__((vector_size (64))); v32hi foo (v16hi x) { return __builtin_shufflevector (x, (v16hi) {}, 0, 16, 1, 17, 2, 18, 3, 19, 4, 20, 5, 21, 6, 22, 7, 23, 8, 24, 9, 25, 10, 26, 11, 27, 12, 28, 13, 29, 14, 30, 15, 31); } v16hi bar (v32hi x) { return __builtin_shufflevector (x, x, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30); } shows two cases, where we should be emitting just vpmovzxwd %ymm0, %zmm0 and vpmovdw %zmm0, %ymm0 but we actually emit vmovdqa %ymm0, %ymm0 vpmovzxwd %ymm0, %zmm0 where the vmovdqa is unnecessary - the permutation doesn't care about the elements at or above 32-bytes - and vmovdqa64 %zmm0, %zmm1 vmovdqa64 .LC0(%rip), %zmm0 vpermi2w %zmm1, %zmm1, %zmm0 Similarly for permutations matching other vpmovxz* or vpmov* instructions.
