Bug ID: 121525
Summary: Add _Float16 support to PowerPC starting with power9
Product: gcc
Version: unknown
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: target
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: meissner at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
Power9 (i.e. ISA 3.0) added support for the xscvdphp, xscvhpdp instructions
that convert scalar IEEE 16-bit floating points to/from SFmode as well as the
xvcvsphp, and xvcvhpsp instructions that convert vector 16-bit floats to/from
V4SF mode.
GCC 16 should add support for the _Float16 type and generate these
instructions.
