This patch series adds support for ARM Neon float16x4_t and float16x8_t vector
types and intrinsics, and the __fp16 type, on both ARM and AArch64, and extends
the tests in Christophe Lyon's advsimd-intrinsics testsuite to cover these. (I
chose to extend the existing tests rather than add new ones, as the majority of
f16 intrinsics are just moving blocks of 16-bits around and do not depend on HW
support; I added new files for the conversion intrinsics.)
The ARM parts were previously posted at
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-01/msg01434.html but have had some fixes
following the testsuite additions. Also The ARM patches depend upon my ARM
lane-checking improvements at
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-01/msg01422.html , which I have just pinged.
I've cross-tested baremetal arm-none-eabi, aarch64-none-elf and
aarch64_be-none-elf most patches individually, and bootstrapped each patch in
series on (the relevant one of) arm-none-linux-gnueabihf and aarch64-none-linux-gnu.
OK for trunk?
