ESP32-S3 has a few SIMD instructions


Intro Espressif Systems released their ESP32-S3 SoC a few years ago, but only recently have they released more documentation and support of ...

I find it hard to understand why the instruction set should be kept secret; a CPU vendor should make it as easy as possible for engineers to use their CPUs. I started with a search on Github for any public repos containing the one instruction needed for any S3 SIMD project - load (ee.vld.128). The YCbCr->RGB step takes a significant amount of time and is a good fit for SIMD optimization.
