Hi Kishor. This looks good so please commit it.

One nit:
///

+ * is not a multiple of {@code SPECIES.length()} will have a mask with + * first {@code a.length % SPECIES.length()} lanes set.

///

s/first/the first/

Hi John,

I have a webrev which adds example of masked loops to package javadoc. Additionally it has code changes adding a new method (indexFromrange()) and making memory read/write operations work with masks.

Link - http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~kkharbas/vector-api/webrev-vector_unstable.00

Please let me know if the changes look good and can be pushed.

Thanks,
Kishor

As you might have noticed from my pushes to vector-unstable, I’ve been
polishing the Vector API draft, in preparation for our CSR.

Here is a fresh spin of the java doc:

I think Kishor is working on a code example showing how to do masked loops
correctly.

What else do we need before CSR?
