The interface is made available by including <code class="code">&lt;msa.h&gt;</code> and using <samp class="option">-mmsa -mhard-float -mfp64 -mnan=2008</samp>. For each <code class="code">__builtin_msa_*</code>, there is a shortened name of the intrinsic, <code class="code">__msa_*</code>. </p> <p>MSA implements 128-bit wide vector registers, operating on 8-, 16-, 32- and 64-bit integer, 16- and 32-bit fixed-point, or 32- and 64-bit floating point data elements. The following vectors typedefs are included in <code class="code">msa.h</code>: </p>
