Global Structures Alias Analysis
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Access to global structures can also be vectorized, with alias analysis being
used to make sure accesses don't alias. Run-time checks can also be added on
pointer access to structure members.
Many variations are supported, but some that rely on undefined behaviour being
ignored (as other compilers do) are still being left un-vectorized.
.. code-block:: c++
struct { int A[100], K, B[100]; } Foo;
int foo() {
for (int i = 0; i < 100; ++i)
Foo.A[i] = Foo.B[i] + 100;
}
