ok, here is a double precision exponent implementation that works on arm32 hardware, but fails in qemu with the wrong checksum. https://github.com/shawnl/zig-libmvec/blob/master/exp.zig
You need to build zig with the above patch-set. I guess I am starting from a pessimistic perspective, where I have only ever seen SIMD work with arm64 emulation (which is quite new), and am sorry for that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1851095 Title: [feature request] awareness of instructions that are well emulated Status in QEMU: New Bug description: While qemu's scalar emulation tends to be excellent, qemu's SIMD emulation tends to be incorrect (except for arm64 from x86_64)--i have found this both for mipsel and arm32. Until these code paths are audited, which is probably a large job, it would be nice if qemu knew its emulation of this class of instructions was not very good, and thus it would give up on finding these instructions if a "careful" operation is passed.
