[SVE](https://developer.arm.com/docs/101726/latest/explore-the-scalable-vector-extension-sve/what-is-the-scalable-vector-extension) is ARM's "vector-length agnostic" API. AFAICT it's really only available for CPUs geared towards HPC, and not very widely used (yet?), but it works with vector sizes that are...
