Simd<[T; N]>
Implementation of Rust RFC #2366: std::simd
WARNING: this crate only supports the most recent nightly Rust toolchain and will be superceded by stdsimd.
Documentation
- API docs (
master
branch) - Performance guide
- API docs (
docs.rs
) - RFC2366
std::simd
: - contains motivation, design rationale, discussion, etc.
Examples
Most of the examples come with both a scalar and a vectorized implementation.
aobench
fannkuch_redux
matrix inverse
mandelbrot
n-body
options_pricing
spectral_norm
triangle transform
stencil
vector dot product
Cargo features
into_bits
(default: disabled): enablesFromBits
/IntoBits
trait implementations for the vector types. These allow reinterpreting the bits of a vector type as those of another vector type safely by just using the.into_bits()
method.
Performance
The following ISPC examples are also part of packed_simd
's
examples/
directory, where packed_simd
+rayon
are used to emulate ISPC's
Single-Program-Multiple-Data (SPMD) programming model. The performance results
on different hardware is shown in the readme.md
of each example. The following
table summarizes the performance ranges, where +
means speed-up and -
slowdown:
aobench
:[-1.02x, +1.53x]
,stencil
:[+1.06x, +1.72x]
,mandelbrot
:[-1.74x, +1.2x]
,options_pricing
:black_scholes
:+1.0x
binomial_put
:+1.4x
While SPMD is not the intended use case for packed_simd
, it is possible to
combine the library with rayon
to poorly emulate ISPC's SPMD programming
model in Rust. Writing performant code is not as straightforward as with
ISPC, but with some care (e.g. see the Performance Guide) one
can easily match and often out-perform ISPC's "default performance".
Platform support
The following table describes the supported platforms: build
shows whether
the library compiles without issues for a given target, while run
shows
whether the test suite passes for a given target.

Machine code verification
The
verify/
crate tests disassembles the portable packed vector APIs at run-time and
compares the generated machine code against the desired one to make sure that
this crate remains efficient.
