Describe your question
I think this is an old question, but I don't find a clear answer. So need your help!
Something that I find is that, the crate packed_simd has been in maintenance mode and no new features will be introduced: rust-lang/packed_simd#282 (comment)
https://github.com/rust-lang/packed_simd/blob/master/README.md

Also, protable_simd is planned to be the stable and standard library in the future, it is true?

My questions are:

  1. Is packed_simd_2 still a reliable crate?
  2. Do we need to migrate from packed_simd_2 to portable_simd?
  3. Which one could be stable in the future, packed_simd_2 or portable_simd?

I know these are old questions, but I don't find a clear answer. So need your help!
