The type of the field in a tuple struct isn't an array when using the #[simd] attribute.
Erroneous code example:
#![feature(repr_simd)] #[repr(simd)] struct Bad(u16); // error!
When using the #[simd] attribute to automatically use SIMD operations in tuple structs, if you want a single-lane vector then the field must be a 1-element array, or the compiler will trigger this error.
Fixed example:
#![feature(repr_simd)] #[repr(simd)] struct Good([u16; 1]); // ok!
