The AltiVec built-in functions described in this section are available on the PowerPC family of processors starting with ISA 2.06 or later. These are normally enabled by adding -mvsx to the command line.
When -mvsx is used, the following additional vector types are implemented.
vector unsigned __int128 vector signed __int128 vector unsigned long long int vector signed long long int vector double
The long long types are only implemented for 64-bit code generation.

Note that the ‘vec_ld’ and ‘vec_st’ built-in functions always generate the AltiVec ‘LVX’ and ‘STVX’ instructions even if the VSX instruction set is available. The ‘vec_vsx_ld’ and ‘vec_vsx_st’ built-in functions always generate the VSX ‘LXVD2X’, ‘LXVW4X’, ‘STXVD2X’, and ‘STXVW4X’ instructions.
