Series riscv: set vstart_eq_zero on vector insns | expand

Commit Message

Daniel Henrique Barboza March 11, 2024, 6:08 p.m. UTC
We're going to make changes that will required each helper to be
responsible for the 'vstart' management, i.e. we will relieve the
'vstart < vl' assumption that helpers have today.

Helpers are usually able to deal with vstart >= vl, i.e. doing nothing
aside from setting vstart = 0 at the end, but the tail update functions
will update the tail regardless of vstart being valid or not.

Unifying the tail update process in a single function that would handle
the vstart >= vl case isn't trivial. We have 2 functions that are used
to update tail: vext_set_tail_elems_1s() and vext_set_elems_1s(). The
latter is a more generic function that is also used to mask elements.
There's no easy way of making all callers using vext_set_tail_elems_1s()
because we're not encoding NF properly in all cases [1].

This patch takes a blunt approach: do an early exit in every single
vector helper if vstart >= vl. We can worry about unifying the tail
update process later.
