[Qemu-devel] AVX support for TCG

[Nick Renieris]

Hello,

What's the current status on AVX support for TCG? Is there anyone working on it?
Is there interest for it?

Effort was put into making 'TCGv_vec', as elaborated in this talk:

"[2017] Vectoring in on QEMU's TCG Engine by Alex Bennée"
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IYHTwnde0g8)

,yet there doesn't seem to be a front-end (except for VEX prefix
parsing) nor a backend for AVX, a pretty common x86 extension.

I'd appreciate any info on this,

Regards,
Nick Renieris.
