llvm-mca shows:
End-to-end benchmarks on a toy base64 implementation using 512-bit shuffles improve by 7% to 13% on my Zen4 workstation, depending on how you count.
Benchmark details
This is a port/upstreaming of my work on
fearless_simd: linebender/fearless_simd#276Disassembly and llvm-mca measurements are from
fearless_simdbecause this repo does not include instructions on how to disassemble and benchmark it (as opposed to thestd::simdre-export of its older version).Correctness of this formulation was verified using random testing against the scalar reference on 100k inputs: linebender/fearless_simd@4e8a56a
On top of the usual unit tests.
