[SPIRV] Expand spv_bitcast intrinsic during instruction selection (#164884) The spv_bitcast intrinsic is currently replaced by an OpBitcast during prelegalization. This will cause a problem when we need to legalize the OpBitcast. The legalizer assumes that instruction already lowered to a target specific opcode is legal. We cannot lower it to a G_BITCAST because the bitcasts sometimes the LLT type will be the same, causing an error in the verifier, even if the SPIR-V types will be different. This commit keeps the intrinsic around until instruction selection. We can create rules to legalize a G_INTRINISIC* instruction, and it does not create problem for the verifier. No tests are updated because this change should be invisible to users.
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
