# Abstract
create an entirely Libre Hybrid 3D CPU-VPU-GPU. Critical to that is to have decent Vectorisation support. Most GPUs use predicated SIMD: SIMD has been demonstrated multiple times to be harmful, and with Libre-SOC also needing to run standard CPU workloads as well, designing an ISA and associated compilers and toolcgains was impractical. Therefore a Vector ISA has been designed which, in effect, uses the x86-style "REP" instruction on top of the scalar Power ISA v3.0.
