Other than for zero, I'd expect the vmov to be vmov.i8 to move an
arbitrary byte value into all lanes in a vector.  After that, if the
alignment is known to be more than 8-bit, I'd expect the vst1
instructions (with the exception of the last store if the length is not
a multiple of the alignment) to use

	vst1.<align> {reg}, [addr-reg :<align>]!

Hence, for 16-bit aligned data, we want

	vst1.16	{q8}, [r3:16]!

Please make sure that all the white space before the comments is using

This could be used more widely if you passed the SET in as a parameter
(there are cases in arm_new_rtx_cost that could use it, for example).
Also, you want to enable sub-targets (only once you can't create new
pseudos is that not safe), so the penultimate argument in the call to
arm_gen_constant should be 1.

I think the non-size_p alternative should really be a parameter in the
per-cpu costs table.

"Straight" is confusing here.  Do you mean non-vectorized?  If so, then
non_vect might be clearer.

The arguments should really be documented (see comment below about
align, for example).

This should be marked const.

Isn't align in bits here, when you really want it in bytes?

What if align > 4 bytes?

I'm not sure what you mean by unaligned here.  Again, documenting the
arguments might help.

Use either "Number" or, in this case, simply drop that bit and write:
  /* Instruction loading constant value.  */

> +  num = 1;
> +  /* Num of store instructions.  */

Likewise.

> +  num += (length + nelt - 1) / nelt;
> +  /* Num of address adjusting instructions.  */

Can't we work on the premise that the address adjusting instructions
will be merged into the stores?  I know you said that they currently do
not, but that's not a problem that this bit of code should have to worry
about.

What's the return value mean?

Don't mix initialized declarations with unitialized ones on the same
line.  You don't appear to use either I or J until their first use in
the loop control below, so why initialize them here?

Is this the first use of J?  If so, initialize it here.

Similarly for I.

Why not drop the if and write:

     gcc_assert ((i + nelt_v8) > length || mode == V16QImode);

Your assertion above checked <=, but here you use <.  Is that correct?

See all the comments above for the unaligend case.

Have you tested these when the compiler was configured with
"--with-cpu=cortex-a9"?
