support for Intel(R) AVX-512 Vector Byte Manipulation Instructions (Intel(R)
AVX-512 VBMI).
- Introduce a new 32-state shuffle-based DFA engine ("Sheng32"). This improves
scanning performance by leveraging AVX-512 VBMI.
- Introduce a new 64-state shuffle-based DFA engine ("Sheng64"). This improves
scanning performance by leveraging AVX-512 VBMI.
- Introduce a new shuffle-based hybrid DFA engine ("McSheng64"). This improves
scanning performance by leveraging AVX-512 VBMI.
- Improvement on exceptional state handling performance for LimEx NFA, including
support for AVX-512 VBMI.
- Improvement on lookaround performance with new models, including support for
AVX-512.
- Improvement on DFA state space efficiency.
- Optimization on decision of NFA/DFA generation.
- hsbench: add CSV dump support for hsbench.
