[PATCH v3 02/14] util: Add RISC-V vector extension probe in cpuinfo
Posted by LIU Zhiwei 2 months, 2 weeks ago
From: TANG Tiancheng <tangtiancheng.ttc@alibaba-inc.com>

Add support for probing RISC-V vector extension availability in
the backend. This information will be used when deciding whether
to use vector instructions in code generation.

While the compiler doesn't support RISCV_HWPROBE_EXT_ZVE64X,
we use RISCV_HWPROBE_IMA_V instead.

Surely this does not compile, since the riscv_vlen referenced in the assert does not exist.

That said, I've done some experimentation and I believe there is a further simplification 
to be had in instead saving log2(vlenb).

     if (info & CPUINFO_ZVE64X) {
         /*
          * We are guaranteed by RVV-1.0 that VLEN is a power of 2.
          * We are guaranteed by Zve64x that VLEN >= 64, and that
          * EEW of {8,16,32,64} are supported.
          *
          * Cache VLEN in a convenient form.
          */
         unsigned long vlenb;
         asm("csrr %0, vlenb" : "=r"(vlenb));
         riscv_lg2_vlenb = ctz32(vlenb);
     }

I'll talk about how this can be used against the next patch with vsetvl.

riscv_vlen is macro about riscv_vlenb. I think you miss it.

Should we use the .insn format here? Maybe we are having a compiler 
doesn't support vector.

OK.

I did miss the macro.  But there's also no need for it to exist.

Neither gcc nor clang requires V be enabled at compile time in order to access the CSR.
It does seem like a mistake, but I'm happy to use it.
