Bug ID: 43072
Summary: LLVM ERROR: Cannot select: intrinsic
%llvm.ppc.altivec.dss
Product: clang
Version: 8.0
Hardware: Other
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: release blocker
Priority: P
Component: LLVM Codegen
Assignee: unassignedclangb...@nondot.org
Reporter: elvis.dow...@gmail.com

I tried to compile SDL2 library from sources on an IBM Power9 system, using
clang-8.0.1 built from the 8.0 branch.
The options passed for building the library are as follows:
```bash
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DVIDEO_MIR=OFF -DVIDEO_KMSDRM=OFF
-DSDL_STATIC=ON -DEXTRA_CFLAGS='-gdwarf-4 -fpic -mabi=altivec -mvsx -maltivec
-mpower9-vector' -DEXTRA_LDFLAGS='-fpic' ${ARCH_OPTIONS} ../$SDL_DIR
e
```
I went through the debugging process and narrowed it down to a code generator
bug.
When I run the command
```
llc ./build-SDL-gui-backend-Debug/SDL_blit_N.bc
LLVM ERROR: Cannot select: intrinsic %llvm.ppc.altivec.dss
llc ./build-SDL-gui-backend-Debug/SDL_blit_N.bc -relocation-model=pic
LLVM ERROR: Cannot select: intrinsic %llvm.ppc.altivec.dss
llc ./build-SDL-gui-backend-Debug/SDL_blit_N.bc -relocation-model=static
LLVM ERROR: Cannot select: intrinsic %llvm.ppc.altivec.dss
```
Here is the output of the build process:
```bash
13 warnings generated.
fatal error: error in backend: Cannot select: intrinsic %llvm.ppc.altivec.dss
