1. The document has been changed to provide separate assignments for VSX in ISA versions
v2.07 and v3.0. Again, the URL is github.com/power8-abi-doc/vector-function-abi.git. Clone
it and open the html file in a browser. The pdf file continues to suffer formatting issues as
it is created using html file -> html2ps -> ps2pdf -> pdf file.
2. With the understanding that GCC does not vectorize sincos - not for x86_64 nor Aarch64 -
can we now offer up PPC64 libmvec patches for inclusion in the main glibc development
repository? They currently live in branch tuliom/libmvec and we would like to have them
reviewed for acceptance into the master branch.
Thanks.
Bert.
