Re:AMD Claims Arm ISA Doesn't Offer Efficiency Advantage ove... by adgjlsfhk1 on Monday September 15, 2025 @12:18AM (#45246060)
There's a chicken and egg problem here. C can't express this, and there's no LLVM IR for this because up till now, everyone has had global registers for configuring fpus which make them slow and useless.

C probably won't support this for decades (ISO tends to be pretty conservative), but other languages (e.g Rust/Julia) might support this soonish (especially if LLVM adds support)
