[LLVMdev] Altivec vs the type legalizer
Hi Dale, I think Bob is right: the type legalizer shouldn't be turning v16i8 into v16i32, what should happen is that the return type of the BUILD_VECTOR continues to be v16i8, but the type of the operands changes to i32, so you end up with a BUILD_VECTOR that takes 16 lots of i32, and produces a v16i8. The target then has all the info it needs to produce the best code, but needs to be careful
