SIMD builtins provided by the compiler can be used to generate the
vector instructions. This section describes the available builtins
and their usage in programs. With the -msimd option, the
compiler provides 128-bit vector types, which can be specified using
the vector_size attribute. The header file arc-simd.h
can be included to use the following predefined types:
typedef int __v4si __attribute__((vector_size(16)));
typedef short __v8hi __attribute__((vector_size(16)));
These types can be used to define 128-bit variables. The built-in functions listed in the following section can be used on these variables to generate the vector operations.
For all builtins, __builtin_arc_someinsn, the header file
arc-simd.h also provides equivalent macros called
_someinsn that can be used for programming ease and
improved readability. The following macros for DMA control are also
provided:
#define _setup_dma_in_channel_reg _vdiwr
#define _setup_dma_out_channel_reg _vdowr
The following is a complete list of all the SIMD built-ins provided for ARC, grouped by calling signature.
