How do I know if the ARM® DS-5™ Intel® SoC FPGA Edition generated vector instructions for ARM NEON?

SoC EDS/DS-5 SoC FPGA

Category: SoCs
Tool: SoC EDS
device:-


One way to determine if it has been vectorized is to open the .objdump file produced by the build in a text editor and look at the generated ARM assembler code.

NEON vector instructions are prefixed with v (eg vldr, vmov, vadd, vmul, etc.).
If this NEON assembler instruction is included, I think you can guess that the compiler is doing vectorization.
