> The original PR was [here](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/19261), it got too chaotic.
>
> I added some extra tests for this in: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/19558
> I extracted some refactorings to: https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/19573
>
> We used to have:
> - `PacksetGraph`: this detects cycles introduces by packs, and schedules/reorders the memops.
> - `SuperWord::apply_vectorization`: creates `VectorNodes` directly from the `PackSet`.
>
> In my blog, I have published lots of ideas for SuperWord / AutoVectorization improvements:
> https://eme64.github.io/blog/2023/11/03/C2-AutoVectorizer-Improvement-Ideas.html
>
> Many ideas are based on the "VectorTransform IR": cost-model, if-conversion, direct widening of scalars to vectors, additional optimizations/features with shuffle/pack/extract, handling more reduction patterns, etc.
>
> I now decided to name it `VTransform`, which is essencially a graph `VtransformGraph` of nodes `VTransformNodes` that resemble the C2 Node on purpose, because the `VTransform` models the C2 graph after vectorization. We can now model the transformation from scalar-loop to vectorized-loop without modifying the C2 graph yet.
>
> The new code has these steps:
> - Given the `PackSet` from `SuperWord`, we create a `VTransformGraph` with `SuperWordVTransformBuilder`.
> - [Not yet: all sorts of optimizations / checks on the `VTransformGraph`, in future RFE's]
> - We then schedule the `VTransformGraph`, and check for cycles.
> - Once we are ready to commit to vectorization, we call `VTransformGraph::apply_vectorization` which lets each individual `VTransformNode::apply` generate the new vectorized C2 nodes.
>
> **Testing**
>
> Regression testing passed.
>
> Performance testing: no significant change in performance (as expected).
