Currently, we only support code that makes use of vector registers. In some instances, that's going to be too restrictive. We want some support for non-vector registers.

It seems that we should regroup the instructions by types and implement them in batches. It seems wasteful to duplicate entirely the code for psubw, pcmpeqw, paddw which have all the same logic.

This is a case where abstraction would be welcome.

E.g., 32-bit integers or floats...

Right now, one cannot quickly identify which vector is being animated. Sometimes vectors are subject to a lot of operation aland are mixed with other vectors. We should be able to quickly know which one is which.

It seems that it may fail on Edge.

I'd be delighted to help integrate directly into Compiler Explorer, if that's something you'd consider useful? (see also compiler-explorer/compiler-explorer#1203 )

VCL is popular enough to be available in the Godbolt compiler explorer. Would be great to be able to use it here.

Neat project! A quick search didn't turn up anything for NEON (ARM's SIMD intrinsics). Would this be difficult to implement?

Duh.

It seems bad to just code up our implementation of the instructions and hope for the best. We should have tests to make sure they are correct.

Hi folks, cool project!

I was trying out a few of my code snippets but can't seem to get them to work. Here's an example:

#include <x86intrin.h>

__m512 huge = _mm512_set1_pd(2);
__m512 tiny = _mm512_set1_pd(-2);
__m512 one = _mm512_set1_pd(1.0);

void sgm(__m512& prodv, __m512& scales, __m512 const incoming) {
	prodv = _mm512_mul_pd(prodv, incoming);
	auto pgeh = _mm512_cmp_pd_mask(prodv, huge, _CMP_GE_OQ);
	auto plet = _mm512_cmp_pd_mask(prodv, tiny, _CMP_LE_OQ);
	prodv = _mm512_mask_mul_pd(prodv, pgeh, prodv, tiny);
	prodv = _mm512_mask_mul_pd(prodv, plet, prodv, huge);
	scales = _mm512_mask_add_epi64(scales, pgeh, scales, one);
	scales = _mm512_mask_sub_epi64(scales, plet, scales, one);
}

Removing the & in the parameter list and making it return prodv gets it a bit further, but not much. All of the instructions are reported as "unsupported command".

What a great tool, thanks for this! I tried to visualize a very simple function that uses _mm_cvtepi8_epi32; it compiles but then page goes blank; in the firefox console following error appears:

This example makes it spin forever:

#include <x86intrin.h>

 __m256 dot8(__m256 a0, __m256 a1, __m256 a2, __m256 b0, __m256 b1, __m256 b2)
{
  return _mm256_add_ps(
    _mm256_mul_ps(a0, b0), _mm256_add_ps(_mm256_mul_ps(a1, b1), _mm256_mul_ps(a2, b2)));
}

This example makes it load a white webpage:

#include <x86intrin.h>
__m128i a;
__m128i Foo() { return a; }

It would be nice if the user could choose out of a small collection of examples...

E.g., here is another example...

__m128i Delta(__m128i curr, __m128i prev) {
  __m128i a = _mm_alignr_epi8(curr, prev, 12);
  return _mm_sub_epi32(curr, a);
}

c.c. @pmntang

Big thanks for making this cool tool open-source.

By any chance, is there a complete list of instructions which are currently not supported / under development please? For instance, I am aware that vgatherdpd does not work.
