The very latest version of Visual Studio appears to turn pure AVX code into AVX-512 binaries if the function, at any point could run AVX-512 instructions. This cause a regression for us.
We have code that looks like this...
This is likely fine as long as avx512_vpopcount does not get inlined into
bitset_container_compute_cardinality
. But clearly, if avx512_vpopcount gets inline, it makes it likely that Visual Studio might decide to just go AVX-512 all in.This PR makes
avx512_vpopcount
and related functions regular (non-inline) functions. Hopefully, this is sufficient.Reference: RoaringBitmap/croaring-rs#128
