    Hi. I'm trying to debug an old recursive square root function. My first problem I have already solved, which is redefinitions of some of the intrinsic functions in the most recent updates of <xmintrin.h>.

    This problem gives an error when the __mm_load_ss function tries to retrieve the data from the input and stores it as x. The compiler remarks the line as
    error: incompatible types in initialization.

    Here is the code:
    ------------------------------------------
    Code:
    typedef float  v4sf __attribute__((vector_size(16)));
    typedef double v2df __attribute__((vector_size(32)));
    
    static v4sf f3  = { 3.0f, 3.0f, 3.0f, 3.0f };
    static v4sf f05 = { 0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f };
    
    #if defined __SSE2__
    static v2df d3  = { 3.0, 3.0 };
    static v2df d05 = { 0.5, 0.5 };
    #endif
    
    inline float cuRecSqrtSEE(float x)
    
    {
    
    #if defined __SSE__
    
      v4sf  xx = __mm_load_ss( & x ); <----- ERROR HERE
      v4sf  xr = __builtin_ia32_rsqrtss( xx );
      v4sf  xt;
      xt = __builtin_ia32_mulss( xr, xr );
      xt = __builtin_ia32_mulss( xt, xx );
      xt = __builtin_ia32_subss( f3, xt );
      xt = __builtin_ia32_mulss( xt, f05 );
      xr = __builtin_ia32_mulss( xr, xt );
    
          __builtin_ia32_storess( &x, xr );
    
        return x;
    #else
        float  r;
    
        __builtin_ia32_storess( & r, __builtin_ia32_rsqrtss(__mm_load_ss( & x ) ) );
    
        r *= ((3.0f - r * r * x) * 0.5f);
    
        return r;
    
    #endif
    }
    
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Any help anyone??
