Thanks. That would be great to model SSE variants of SQRTSS almost the same as AVX variants with tied input/output operand.

The correctness issue only happens with vector inputs, and currently we select the vector variant for intrinsics only. My fix in BE actually will force register allocator to choose the same register for both operands. So it should avoid the partial register stall issue for the vector variant. Thanks for pointing it out, I will check in my BE fix for rsqrt and rcp. The definition of builtins for rsqrtss, rcpss will be updated to be the same as the intrinsics. sqrtss and sqrtsd are not included yet.
