There are few tsvc benchmarks that improves significantly: runtime benchmark 256bit 512bit s2275 48.57 20.67 -58% s311 32.29 16.06 -50% s312 32.30 16.07 -50% vsumr 32.30 16.07 -50% s314 10.77 5.42 -50% s313 21.52 10.85 -50% vdotr 43.05 21.69 -50% s316 10.80 5.64 -48% s235 61.72 33.91 -45% s161 15.91 9.95 -38% s3251 32.13 20.31 -36% And there are no benchmarks with off-noise regression. The basic matrix multiplication loop improves by 32%. It is also expected that 512 bit vectors are more power effecient (I can't masure that). The down side is that loops with low trip counts may get slower when the unvectorized prologue and epilogue is hit more often. With SPECfp this problem happens with x264 (12% regression) and bwaves (6% regression) and this is tracked in https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=108410 and will need more work on vectorizer to support masked epilogues. After some additional testing it seems that using 512 bit vectors by default is now overall better choice. Bootstrapped/regtested x86_64-linux. Plan to commit it tomorrow. * config/i386/x86-tune.def (X86_TUNE_AVX256_OPTIMAL): Turn off for znver4. --- diff --git a/gcc/config/i386/x86-tune.def b/gcc/config/i386/x86-tune.def index c78dad07c884..3054656a12c2 100644 --- a/gcc/config/i386/x86-tune.def +++ b/gcc/config/i386/x86-tune.def @@ -551,7 +551,7 @@ DEF_TUNE (X86_TUNE_AVX128_OPTIMAL, "avx128_optimal", m_BDVER | m_BTVER2 /* X86_TUNE_AVX256_OPTIMAL: Use 256-bit AVX instructions instead of 512-bit AVX instructions in the auto-vectorizer. */ -DEF_TUNE (X86_TUNE_AVX256_OPTIMAL, "avx256_optimal", m_CORE_AVX512 | m_ZNVER4) +DEF_TUNE (X86_TUNE_AVX256_OPTIMAL, "avx256_optimal", m_CORE_AVX512) /* X86_TUNE_AVX256_SPLIT_REGS: if true, AVX512 ops are split into two AVX256 ops. */ DEF_TUNE (X86_TUNE_AVX512_SPLIT_REGS, "avx512_split_regs", m_ZNVER4)
