search for: llvm_v8f32_ti

I want to generate Haskell bindings to LLVM intrinsics. In a first attempt I wrote a little parser that reads IntrinsicsX86.td and outputs a Haskell module. E.g. the definition def int_x86_avx_max_ps_256 : GCCBuiltin<"__builtin_ia32_maxps256">, Intrinsic<[llvm_v8f32_ty], [llvm_v8f32_ty, llvm_v8f32_ty], [IntrNoMem]>; is turned into

Hi, I was looking at the x86 vector intrinsics for converting half precision floating point numbers and I'm a bit confused as to why certain types were chosen. I've gone ahead and used their current definition with success but I'd like to understand why the types used with these intrinsics are done this way. For reference see ``include/llvm/IR/IntrinsicsX86.td``. Here are the
