Description
Feature gate: #![feature(stdarch_hexagon)]
This is a tracking issue for the hexagon intrinsics in core::arch::hexagon.
Public API
Contents of core::arch::hexagon.
Steps
- Add HVX support to
portable-simd(see https://github.com/rust-lang/portable-simd/pull/509) - Let rustc emit the target features corresponding to each HVX rev (
+hvxv65,+hvxv73, etc. -- see https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/151500) - Create target-specific mappings for the HVX intrinsics (see https://github.com/rust-lang/stdarch/pull/1999)
- Update the HVX intrinsics to be original "Q6" case https://github.com/rust-lang/stdarch/pull/2074
- Implement the RFC (cc @rust-lang/libs-team...
- Adjust documentation (see instructions on rustc-dev-guide)
- Style updates for any new syntax (nightly-style-procedure)
- Style team decision on new formatting
- Formatting for new syntax has been added to the Style Guide
- (non-blocking) Formatting has been implemented in
rustfmt
- Stabilization PR (see instructions on rustc-dev-guide)
- Fix for
UNREACHABLEin llvm backend https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/182520 - Add scalar intrinsics https://github.com/rust-lang/stdarch/pull/2072

Research direction
Start with the feature gate #![feature(stdarch_hexagon)] and the contents of core::arch::hexagon. Review the remaining checklist, especially the RFC, documentation and stabilization guidance, style requirements, and scalar intrinsics work. Done means the outstanding implementation, documentation, style, scalar-intrinsics, and stabilization steps are completed.
