rs6000: Add optimizations for _mm_sad_epu8
Power9 ISA added `vabsdub` instruction which is realized in the `vec_absd` instrinsic. Use `vec_absd` for `_mm_sad_epu8` compatibility intrinsic, when `_ARCH_PWR9`. Also, the realization of `vec_sum2s` on little-endian includes two rotates in order to position the input and output to match the semantics of `vec_sum2s`: - Rotate the second input vector left 12 bytes. In the current usage, that vector is `{0}`, so this shift is unnecessary, but is currently not eliminated under optimization. - Rotate the vector produced by the `vsum2sws` instruction left 4 bytes. The two words within each doubleword of this (rotated) result must then be explicitly swapped to match the semantics of `_mm_sad_epu8`, effectively reversing this rotate. So, this rotate (and a susequent swap) are unnecessary, but not currently removed under optimization. Using `__builtin_altivec_vsum2sws` retains both rotates, so is not an option for removing the rotates. For little-endian, use the `vsum2sws` instruction directly, and eliminate the explicit rotate (swap). 2021-11-19 Paul A. Clarke <pc@us.ibm.com> gcc * config/rs6000/emmintrin.h (_mm_sad_epu8): Use vec_absd when _ARCH_PWR9, optimize vec_sum2s when LE.
