Shift elements to the left of a SIMD register based on boolean mask

问题 This question is related to this: Optimal uint8_t bitmap into a 8 x 32bit SIMD "bool" vector I would like to create an optimal function with this signature: __m256i PackLeft(__m256i inputVector, __m256i boolVector); The desired behaviour is that on an input of 64bit int like this: inputVector = {42, 17, 13, 3} boolVector = {true, false, true, false} It masks all values that have false in the boolVector and then repacks the values that remain to the left. On the output above, the return value

Intel AVX2 Assembly Development

问题 I am Optimizing the my Video Decoder using Intel assembly for 64-bit architecture. For optimization am using AVX2 instruction set. My development Environment:- OS :- Win 7(64-bit) IDE:- MSVS 2008(Prof) CPU:- Core i5(support up to AVX) Assembler:- YASM I would like to know is there any emulators to run and debug my AVX2 code without upgrading the hardware. Majorly am looking to run & debug my application on existing environment. Any suggestions? 回答1: You can download the Intel SDE (Software

Does /arch:AVX enable AVX2?

喜夏-厌秋 提交于 2019-12-21 04:29:26
问题 I can't find an answer to this simple question, does the /arch:AVX enable AVX2 with its fancy 256 bit registers on the Visual Studio 2012 Update 4? Line of thought: Yes, it enables AVX because VS doesn't mention AVX2. But I think VS can do AVX2 because my intrinsic work. No, it doesn't because SSE and SSE2 are separate 回答1: It refers to AVX not AVX2. According to Microsoft this applies (mostly) to floating point operations. VS2012 supports AVX2 intrinsic functions regardless of this flag. AVX

perf report shows this function “__memset_avx2_unaligned_erms” has overhead. does this mean memory is unaligned?

问题 I am trying to profile my C++ code using perf tool. Implementation contains code with SSE/AVX/AVX2 instructions. In addition to that code is compiled with -O3 -mavx2 -march=native flags. I believe __memset_avx2_unaligned_erms function is a libc implementation of memset . perf shows that this function has considerable overhead. Function name indicates that memory is unaligned, however in the code I am explicitly aligning the memory using GCC built-in macro __attribute__((aligned (x))) What

What is the minimum version of OS X for use with AVX/AVX2?

问题 I have an image drawing routine which is compiled multiple times for SSE, SSE2, SSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, AVX and AVX2. My program dynamically dispatches one of these binary variations by checking CPUID flags. On Windows, I check the version of Windows and disable AVX/AVX2 dispatch if the OS doesn't support them. (For example, only Windows 7 SP1 or later supports AVX/AVX2.) I want to do the same thing on Mac OS X, but I'm not sure what version of OS X supports AVX/AVX2. Note that what I want to

Auto-Vectorize comparison

问题 I've problems getting my g++ 5.4 use vectorization for comparison. Basically I want to compare 4 unsigned ints using vectorization. My first approach was straight forward: bool compare(unsigned int const pX[4]) { bool c1 = (temp[0] < 1); bool c2 = (temp[1] < 2); bool c3 = (temp[2] < 3); bool c4 = (temp[3] < 4); return c1 && c2 && c3 && c4; } Compiling with g++ -std=c++11 -Wall -O3 -funroll-loops -march=native -mtune=native -ftree-vectorize -msse -msse2 -ffast-math -fopt-info-vec-missed told

Sparse array compression using SIMD (AVX2)

时光怂恿深爱的人放手 提交于 2019-12-18 04:55:18
问题 I have a sparse array a (mostly zeroes): unsigned char a[1000000]; and I would like to create an array b of indexes to non-zero elements of a using SIMD instructions on Intel x64 architecture with AVX2. I'm looking for tips how to do it efficiently. Specifically, are there SIMD instruction(s) to get positions of consecutive non-zero elements in SIMD register, arranged contiguously? 回答1: Five methods to compute the indices of the nonzeros are: Semi vectorized loop: Load a SIMD vector with

Fastest way to multiply an array of int64_t?

孤者浪人 提交于 2019-12-17 09:37:10
问题 I want to vectorize the multiplication of two memory aligned arrays. I didn't find any way to multiply 64*64 bit in AVX/AVX2, so I just did loop-unroll and AVX2 loads/stores. Is there a faster way to do this? Note: I don't want to save the high-half result of each multiplication. void multiply_vex(long *Gi_vec, long q, long *Gj_vec){ int i; __m256i data_j, data_i; __uint64_t *ptr_J = (__uint64_t*)&data_j; __uint64_t *ptr_I = (__uint64_t*)&data_i; for (i=0; i<BASE_VEX_STOP; i+=4) { data_i =

How to perform the inverse of _mm256_movemask_epi8 (VPMOVMSKB)?

ⅰ亾dé卋堺 提交于 2019-12-17 04:00:12
问题 The intrinsic: int mask = _mm256_movemask_epi8(__m256i s1) creates a mask, with its 32 bits corresponding to the most significant bit of each byte of s1 . After manipulating the mask using bit operations ( BMI2 for example) I would like to perform the inverse of _mm256_movemask_epi8 , i.e., create a __m256i vector with the most significant bit of each byte containing the corresponding bit of the uint32_t mask . What is the best way to do this? Edit: I need to perform the inverse because the
