Summary: Has anyone made gcc generate vectorised code?
Keywords: GCC, vector, question

I'm wondering if anyone has given gcc the ability to vectorize essentially
scalar programs and thus generate code for a machine with a vector
processor (specifically a Fujitsu VP2x00 series machine).


Does gcc currently have the ability to analyse code for the degree of
parallelism required (looking for independance of iterations in loops,
etc) or only within a basic block in linear code?


I'll summarise if I get something.
