Unrolling/vectorization cost

This loop is peel/tail of a unrolled/vectorized loop. If its cost is not negligible compared to the main (unrolled/vectorized) loop, unrolling/vectorization is counterproductive due to low trip count.

Details

The more iterations the main loop is processing, the higher the trip count must be to amortize peel/tail overhead.

Workaround

recompile with -fprofile-instr-generate, execute ,merge raw profiles with 'llvm-profdata merge -o default.profdata default.profraw' and recompile with -fprofile-instr-use (profile-guided optimization)
hardcode most frequent values of loop bounds by adding specialized paths.:
- For instance, replace for (i=0; i<n; i++) foo(i) with: switch (n) { case (4): for (i=0; i<4; i++) foo(i); break; case (6): for (i=0; i<6; i++) foo(i); break; default : for (i=0; i<n; i++) foo(i); break; }

Vectorization

Your loop is not vectorized. Only 15% of vector register length is used (average across all VPU instructions).

Details

All VPU instructions are used in scalar version (process only one data element in vector registers).

FMA

Detected 2 FMA (fused multiply-add) operations.

Slow data structures access

Detected data structures (typically arrays) that cannot be efficiently read/written

Details

Constant unknown stride: 1 occurrence(s)

Non-unit stride (uncontiguous) accesses are not efficiently using data caches

Workaround

Try to reorganize arrays of structures to structures of arrays
Consider to permute loops (see vectorization gain report)

Conversion instructions

Detected expensive conversion instructions.

Workaround

Avoid mixing data with different types. In particular, check if the type of constants is the same as array elements.

Matching between your loop (in the source code) and the binary loop

The binary loop is composed of 4 FP arithmetical operations:

2: addition or subtraction (all inside FMA instructions)
2: multiply (all inside FMA instructions)

The binary loop is loading 12 bytes.

Arithmetic intensity

Arithmetic intensity is 0.33 FP operations per loaded or stored byte.
