This should really be handled with TableGen, especially because the Hexagon builtins look simpler than Neon, at least in the sense that they appear to be mapped one-to-one to LLVM intrinsics without a lot of special cases. It might need a custom TableGen backend, but it should be a very simple one. Look at the include/clang/Basic/arm_neon.td file and utils/TableGen/NeonEmitter.* files. You can see some examples of how the results are used in lib/Sema/SemaChecking.cpp -- look for the includes of clang/Basic/arm_neon.inc. _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list [email protected] http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
