So I did a bit of reading after finding the "mpx-linux64-abi.pdf"
document. As I suspected, the System V ABI is like vectorcall when it
comes to using the XMM registers... only the types __m128, __float128
and __Decimal128 use the "SSEUP" class and hence use the entire
register. The types are opaque, but both their size and alignment are
16 bytes, so I think anything that abides by those rules can be
considered equivalent.
If the complex type is unaligned, the two fields get their own XMM
register. If aligned, they both go into %xmm0. At least that is what I
gathered from reading the document - it's a little unclear sometimes.
I briefly tested with god bolt (https://godbolt.org/): records of two
double are passed in two xmm registers regardless of the alignment, two
floats (so single) are passed in one xmm register.
