--- Comment #7 from rsandifo at gcc dot gnu.org <rsandifo at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The current issue rate framework was originally written for Neoverse V1 and Neoverse V2. For those cores, it wasn't necessary to make a distinction between scalar integer operations and scalar FP operations: the integer throughput and FP throughput were close enough for the difference not to matter. I think the problem is that the difference between integer throughput and FP throughput does matter for Neoverse N2. E.g. integer additions have a throughput of 4 a cycle whereas FP additions have a throughput of 2 a cycle. Currently the Neoverse N2 model uses a throughput of 4 “general ops” for scalar code. However, when the loop consists entirely of loads, stores and FP operations, the limit should instead be 2.
