+==================== Work082, patch #8:
+Improve vsx_splat_<mode>_reg
+
+In looking at PR target/99293, I noticed that the code in
+vsx_splat_<mode>_reg used "vecmove" as the "type" insn attribute when the
+"mtvsrdd" is generated. It should use "mfvsr". I also added a "p9v" isa
+attribute for that alternative.

+ * config/rs6000/rs6000.md (vsx_splat_<mode>_reg): Use the correct
+ insn type attribute. Add "p9v" isa attribute as needed.

+==================== Work082, patch #7:
+Improve vsx_extract_<mode>
+
+In looking at PR target/99293, I noticed that the code in
+vsx_extract_<mode> could be improved.
+
+When the element being extracted is the element in the upper 64-bits, we
+should do an insn_split to convert this to a simple move. This would
+allow the post reload passes to eliminate the move completely.
+
+The code was written before we moved to LRA for register allocation and it
+restricted the target register to just traditional floating point
+registers. I have changed this to target any VSX register.
+
+The insn type attribute was incorrect in that it used "mfvsr" instead of
+"vecperm" when a xxpermdi would be generated. Also, when a "mvfsrld"
+would be generated, the type should be "mfvsr".

==================== Work082, patch #6:
Optimize vec_splats of constant vec_extract for V2DI/V2DF.
