Module documentation for 0.0.2.3

bits-extra

CircleCI Travis

Useful bitwise operations.

This library exposes support for some BMI2 CPU instructions on some x86 based CPUs.

Currently support operations include:

  • pdep - Parallel Deposit
  • pext - Parallel Extract

These operations are useful for high performance bit manipulation for applications such as succinct data structures.

In the case where the target CPU architectures do not support these instruction set, a very slow emulated version of these operations is provided instead.

Note ghc-8.4.1 is required to target the BMI2 CPU instructions.

Compilation

It is sufficient to build, test and benchmark the library as follows for emulated behaviour:

stack build
stack test
stack bench

To target the BMI2 instruction set, add the bmi2 flag:

stack build --flag bits-extra:bmi2
stack test  --flag bits-extra:bmi2
stack bench --flag bits-extra:bmi2
