Merge into SIMDe? #1

Open nemequ opened 2 years ago

SIMDe maintainer here. If you're interested, I'd love to integrate this into SIMDe. Obviously SIMDe would benefit from better implementations on MSA. sse2msa would get vastly improved coverage of the x86 APIs from our existing portable fallbacks (which are often auto-vectorized) and an extensive test suite, and a lot of the work is already done (the functions already exist, adding MSA implementations is just a matter of adding the proper preprocessor test and calling the MSA function(s)).

We've actually already started implementing the MSA API using SSE/NEON/etc., so a lot of the infrastructure is already in place. To get things going in the other direction we would basically just need to add the MSA types to our existing SSE unions, which is quite simple.

@nemequ Thanks for your interest in this project. This project has just been initiated, and there are still some problems. I will continue to update this project.

At the same time, thank you for your contribution to the development of SIMD-related software. I am also following and hope to participate in the development of SIMDe. If you are interested in this project, I will be very grateful for your improvements to this project. I also hope that this project will be helpful to the development of SIMDe.
