Ok, I am tracking down some bugs in our AVX stuff and came upon an interesting conundrum. The MOVQ instruction (MOVPQIto64rr in X86Instr64bit.td) only takes xmm registers. There is no ymm version since the xxm's are subregisters. I need to be able to match a vector element extract of element 0 on a v4i64 vector. Obviously this is not a legal operation even with AVX because MOVQ only

What does this mean? def MOVSX16rr8 : I<0xBE, MRMSrcReg, (outs GR16:$dst), (ins GR8 :$src), "movs{bl|x}\t{$src, ${dst:subreg32}|${dst:subreg32}, $src}", [(set GR16:$dst, (sext GR8:$src))]>, TB; How does ${dst:subreg32} work? Can one do the same for sources? I don't see an references to "subreg" in the TableGen sources. I see it handled in the X86 AsmPrinter. Looks like it shou...
