VectorAPI VectorInsert Intrinsic

[Vladimir Ivanov]

Additionally:

+instruct rvinsert64B(vecZ dst, vecZ src, vecZ tmp, rRegI val, immI idx) %{
+  predicate(UseAVX > 0 && 
n->bottom_type()->is_vect()->element_basic_type() == T_BYTE);

+instruct rvinsert32S(vecZ dst, vecZ src, vecZ tmp, rRegI val, immI idx) %{
+  predicate(UseAVX > 0 && 
n->bottom_type()->is_vect()->element_basic_type() == T_SHORT);

+instruct rvinsert16I(vecZ dst, vecZ src, vecZ tmp, rRegI val, immI idx) %{
+  predicate(UseAVX > 0 && 
n->bottom_type()->is_vect()->element_basic_type() == T_INT);

+instruct rvinsert8L(vecZ dst, vecZ src, vecZ tmp, rRegL val, immI idx) %{
+  predicate(UseAVX > 0 && 
n->bottom_type()->is_vect()->element_basic_type() == T_LONG);

+  instruct rvinsert16F(vecZ dst, vecZ src, vecZ tmp, regF val, immI idx) %{
+    predicate(UseAVX > 0 && 
n->bottom_type()->is_vect()->element_basic_type() == T_FLOAT);

+  instruct rvinsert8D(vecZ dst, vecZ src, vecZ tmp, regD val, rRegL 
tmp1, immI idx) %{
+    predicate(UseAVX > 0 && 
n->bottom_type()->is_vect()->element_basic_type() == T_DOUBLE);

Shouldn't UseAVX > 2 be used instead?


Also, I suspect *_avx rules are never used.

+instruct rvinsert16B(vecX dst, vecX src, rRegI val, immI idx) %{
+  predicate(UseSSE > 3 && 
n->bottom_type()->is_vect()->element_basic_type() == T_BYTE);

+instruct rvinsert16B_avx(vecX dst, vecX src, rRegI val, immI idx) %{
+  predicate(UseAVX > 0 && 
n->bottom_type()->is_vect()->element_basic_type() == T_BYTE);

Both predicates are true when UseAVX > 0 and the first matching one is 
used always. Don't you need "UseSSE > 3 && UseAVX == 0" in the first case?

Best regards,
