Were these intrinsics already available in LLVM 3.6? If not, the old code needs to be kept for backwards compatibility.I can see now that you're taking care of this for the bpermute intrinsic, but AFAICT the mbcnt intrinsics were only added in LLVM 3.8.How do you feel about increasing the requirement to LLVM 3.8 for Mesa git?
Please no.In addition to Gentoo and Arch mentioned by Ilia, Ubuntu also still ships 3.7. This will change soon enough, but even then, we should give people a few months to update.
Let's not scare people away too much. Nicolai _______________________________________________ mesa-dev mailing list mesa-dev@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/mesa-dev
