An example use case is a string copy operation - using Harmonised RVP, binary code using integer register based SIMD to copy a string of bytes can also execute (unchanged) on a full RV Vector processor and use the dedicated vector unit to copy string. The is also upwards compatibility between RV32 and RV64 SIMD using this same approach. -- 2.30.2
