llvm dev - Jul 2010 - [LLVMdev] v16i32/v16f32

Hi
   I find  types such as v16i32, v16f32  missing in my llvm version 2.7

So does the following page not list them
http://llvm.org/docs/doxygen/html/classllvm_1_1MVT.html

is that intentional for any reason or can I just add them  ?

thanks

As far as I know, they're not there simply because there isn't any use
for them in any current backend.

I tried adding them in my backend however I run into the assertion

 assert((unsigned)VT.SimpleTy < sizeof(LoadExtActions[0])*4 &&
           ExtType < array_lengthof(LoadExtActions) &&
           "Table isn't big enough!");

What does the assertion mean ?


thanks for all help!!
