__lasx_extract_128_hi
LASX intrinsic · group: Misc
Synopsis
__m128i __lasx_extract_128_hi (__m256i a)
#include <lsxintrin.h>
#include <lasxintrin.h>
CPU Flags: LASX
Description
Extract the high 128-bit half of a as an integer vector.
This helper intrinsic does not name a distinct LASX instruction. Depending on the operation and optimization, it may lower to a no-op, a register move, or an existing LASX permutation instruction such as xvpermi.q.
Operation
for (int i = 0;i < 2;i++) {
dst.dword[i] = a.dword[i + 2];
}
GCC Compatibility
Supported by GCC 16 and later.
GCC 14 and GCC 15 do not provide this intrinsic. The fallback below uses a non-volatile GNU inline assembly register alias where the older compiler has no 128/256-bit cast operator, and otherwise uses regular LASX intrinsics. It is intended for source compatibility; the native GCC 16 intrinsic may still generate better code.
