Craig, Ahha, thanks. Even with that info I had to resort to “find-grep” to figure out how it gets #included, Being indirectly included from “include/llvm/IR/Intrinsics.td” isn’t exactly obvious :=(( Would it be possible move the #include into “Target.td” ? Also, in “ValueTypes.td” there is a comment about needing to keep it coordinated With “MahineValueType.h”, but there is no such comment in “MachineValueType.h”, Would it be possible for someone to add such a complementary comment ?

The way I’d like to try getting better reg-alloc than I am now is to bring out the difference as Early as possible, so I have added p16, p32, p64 to the enum in “MachineValueType.h” And I have called addRegisterClass(MVT::p32, &XyzAddrRegsRegClass); And I have an override for virtual TargetLowering::getPointerTy() that returns MVT::p32, And some other minor changes that altogether cause virt-regs that contain pointers To get my AddrRegs reg-class rather than the “GPR” reg-class that i32 types get. So far so good, except that llvm-tblgen barfs on “p32”, so the question remains, How does tblgen know the symbol names “i16”, “i32”, “i64”, etc... They don’t seem to come from explicit “def” statements like the symbols “add”, “sub”, etc... do Unless I’m missing something obvious (wouldn’t be the first time!) And I’m mystified because my interpretation of reading “utils/TableGen/TableGen.cpp” And “lib/TableGen/Main.cpp”, Is that the input is fully read and parsed before the backend is invoked, So the back-end can’t be providing symbol-table init for the front-end, So the definitions have to be in the input source, but I can’t find them… Thanks, Peter Lawrence.

E.g., from AArch64 def simm9 : Operand<i64>, ImmLeaf<i64, [{ return Imm >= -256 && Imm < 256; }]> { let ParserMatchClass = SImm9Operand; } Wouldn’t that work for you?

There is a comment in MachineValueTypes.h in the enum. // If you change this numbering, you must change the values in // ValueTypes.td as well! Other = 0, // This is a non-standard value I don't think the .td include can be fixed easily. Tablegen doesn't support include guards and can only include each file once. Looks like there is a build step that runs tablegen directly on Intrinsics.td so that file needs to include ValueTypes.td on its own.
