I'd be happy to file some PRs along this line, if there is interest. C
yes, there is

fails to vectorize more than 50% of the stuff I run into every day,
including most everything which involves distinct sections of the same

I thought there was already a PR opened for this issue (probably by Toon),
but I can't find it :-(

There are several issues. EQUIVALENCE produces such a problem (PR32373)
as do various kinds of references to multiple sections of the same array
(PR32375,32376,32377,32378,32379,32380). Only 2 of those PRs involve
actual source/destination overlap, where the vectorizer would have to
choose the correct direction (loop reversed or not).
In the bigger case (PR32380) there are loops which vectorize in
isolation but not in the presence of other loops.
There are existing PRs on a somewhat similar issue involving type
casting in C. IMHO, not vectorizing those might seem excusable.
Thanks,
Tim
