Yes, upgrade would be to byte-GEPs. > Even worse, DXIL uses different vector semantics where alignment in vectors > is respected, so importing DXIL already is a challenge, but if vector GEPs in > DXIL were to be replaced by byte-GEPs as part of auto-upgrade, preserving > DXIL semantics becomes difficult. Would probably need a bitcode parser hook for the conversion of GEP indices to offsets. You'll have to deal with this problem at some point anyway, once we start upgrading *all* GEPs to byte-GEPs in the not-so-distant future. https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/75448 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
