Hi all,
Vector API fails to work when: - case 1: MaxVectorSize is set to <=8, or - case 2: C2 is disabled
The reason is that {max/preferred} VectorShape initialization fails in both cases. And the root cause is that VectorSupport_GetMaxLaneCount [1] returns unreasonable values (0 for case 1 and -1 for case 2).
Vector API should not depend on C2 to run. It should work even there is no JIT compiler since it's a Java-level api. So let's fix it.
Testing: - jdk/incubator/vector with -XX:MaxVectorSize=default/8 on Linux/x64
Thanks. Best regards, Jie
