@erifan thanks for updating the tests!

Now I had a quick look at the VM code.

My biggest observation is this:

Wrapping `VectorNode::Ideal` somewhere in the middle of your new optimization is going to make future optimizations here much harder.
How would they check their conditions next to yours? That would be quite a mess.

I suggest you do this:
- `XorVNode::Ideal` does
  - checks `in1 == in2` case
  - calls a method called `XorVNode::Ideal_XorV_VectorMaskCmp`. Check if it succeeded, i.e. returns `nullptr`.
  - ... future optimizations could go here ...
  - Finally, i.e. none of the optimizations above worked: call `VectorNode::Ideal`

Then you pack all your new logic here into `XorVNode::Ideal_XorV_VectorMaskCmp`. You can also find a better name, it is just what I came up with just now.

This gives us a much more **modular** design, and it is easier to add another new optimization to `XorVNode::Ideal`. It is easy to change the precedence of the optimizations by just changing the order, etc.

src/hotspot/share/opto/vectornode.cpp line 2216:

> 2214:       in2->is_predicated_vector()) {
> 2215:     with_predicated = true;
> 2216:   }

Suggestion:

  bool with_predicated = is_predicated_vector() ||
                         in1->is_predicated_vector() ||
                         in2->is_predicated_vector();

src/hotspot/share/opto/vectornode.cpp line 2224:

> 2222:   //    => (VectorMaskCmp src1 src2 ncond)
> 2223:   // cond can be eq, ne, le, ge, lt, gt, ule, uge, ult and ugt, ncond is the
> 2224:   // negative comparison of cond.

Suggestion:

  // cond can be eq, ne, le, ge, lt, gt, ule, uge, ult and ugt.
  // ncond is the negative comparison of cond.

I was getting lost in all the commas.

src/hotspot/share/opto/vectornode.cpp line 2248:

> 2246:       !((VectorMaskCmpNode*) in1)->predicate_can_be_inverted() ||
> 2247:       !VectorNode::is_all_ones_vector(in2)) {

Hmm, so this is really the "else" case, if your optimization does not succeed, right?

Wrapping `VectorNode::Ideal` somewhere in the middle is going to make future optimizations here much harder.
How would they check their conditions next to yours? That would be quite a mess.

I suggest you do this:
- `XorVNode::Ideal` does
  - checks `in1 == in2` case
  - calls a method called `XorVNode::Ideal_XorV_VectorMaskCmp`. Check if it succeeded, i.e. returns `nullptr`.
  - Finally, i.e. none of the optimizations above worked: call `VectorNode::Ideal`

Then you pack all your new logic here into `XorVNode::Ideal_XorV_VectorMaskCmp`. You can also find a better name, it is just what I came up with just now.
