__lasx_extract_128_lo_s

LASX intrinsic · group: Misc

Synopsis

__m128 __lasx_extract_128_lo_s (__m256 a)
#include <lsxintrin.h>
#include <lasxintrin.h>
CPU Flags: LASX

Description

Extract the low 128-bit half of a as a single precision 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 < 4;i++) {
  dst.fp32[i] = a.fp32[i];
}

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.

#if defined(__loongarch_asx) && !defined(__loongarch_asx_sx_conv)
static inline __m128 __lasx_extract_128_lo_s (__m256 a) {
  __m128 r;
  __asm__("" : "=f"(r) : "0"(a));
  return r;
}
#endif
