/**
* vzeroupper is essential to avoid performance penalty during SSE-AVX transition. Specifically,
* once we have executed instructions that modify the upper bits (i.e., 128+) of the YMM registers,
* we need to perform vzeroupper to transit the state to 128bits before executing any SSE
* instructions. We don't need to place vzeroupper between VEX-encoded SSE instructions and legacy
* SSE instructions, nor between AVX instructions and VEX-encoded SSE instructions.
*
* When running Graal on HotSpot, we emit a vzeroupper LIR operation (i.e. an instance of this
* class) before a foreign call to the runtime function where Graal has no knowledge. The underlying
* reason is that HotSpot is SSE-compiled so as to support older CPUs. We also emit a vzeroupper
* instruction (see {@code AMD64HotSpotReturnOp.emitCode}) upon returning, if the current LIR graph
* contains LIR operations that touch the upper bits of the YMM registers, including but not limited
* to {@link AMD64VectorInstruction}, {@link AMD64ArrayCompareToOp}, {@link AMD64ArrayEqualsOp},
* {@link AMD64ArrayIndexOfOp}, and {@link ForeignCallOp} that invokes to Graal-compiled stubs. For
* the last case, since Graal-compiled stubs is under our control, we don't emit vzeroupper upon
* returning of the stub, but rather do that upon returning of the current method.
*
* On JDK8, C2 does not emit many vzeroupper instructions, potentially because that YMM registers
* are not heavily employed (C2 vectorization starts using YMM registers in 9, source
* https://cr.openjdk.java.net/~vlivanov/talks/2017_Vectorization_in_HotSpot_JVM.pdf) and thus less
* care has been taken to place these instructions. One example is that many intrinsics employ YMM
* registers starting from https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8005419, but does not properly
* place vzeroupper upon returning of the intrinsic stub or the caller of the stub.
*
* Most vzeroupper were added in JDK 10 (https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8178811), and was
* later restricted on Haswell Xeon due to performance regression
* (https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8190934). The actual condition for placing vzeroupper
* is at http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/jdk/file/c7d9df2e470c/src/hotspot/cpu/x86/x86_64.ad#l428. To
* summarize, if nmethod employs YMM registers (or intrinsics which use them, search for
* clear_upper_avx() in opto/library_call.cpp) vzeroupper will be generated on nmethod's exit and
* before any calls in nmethod, because even compiled nmethods can still use only SSE instructions.
*
* This means, if a Java method performs a call to an intrinsic that employs YMM registers,
* C2-compiled code will place a vzeroupper before the call, upon exit of the stub and upon exit of
* this method. Graal will only place the last, because it ensures that Graal-compiled Java method
* and stubs will be consistent on using VEX-encoding.
*
* In SubstrateVM, since the whole image is compiled consistently with or without VEX encoding (the
* later is the default behavior, see {@code NativeImageGenerator.createTarget}), there is no need
* for vzeroupper. For dynamic compilation on a SubstrateVM image, if the image is SSE-compiled, we
* then need vzeroupper when returning from the dynamic compiled code to the pre-built image code.
