Summary: Fails to vectorize comparison code Product: gcc Version: 4.5.2 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: jeremysal...@gmail.com I have the following function #define PIO6 0.523598776 #define SA5 2.74201854577e-06 #define SA4 -1.98410347969e-04 #define SA3 8.33333320429e-03 #define SA2 -1.66666666666e-01 static void bestseries9(float * __restrict__ arr,int len) { for(int i=0; i<len; i++) { float or=arr[i]; float orig=or / 3*(or>PIO6); float sqr=orig*orig; arr[i]=orig*(1+sqr*(SA2+sqr*(SA3+sqr*(SA4+SA5*sqr)))); arr[i]=arr[i]*(1+(or>PIO6)*(2-4*arr[i]*arr[i])); } } which should be vectorized, but it is not. If I turn on verbose vectorization, it says that there is a conditional in the loop, and so it won't vectorize it.
