<p>For us, constrained fadd and friends aren't particular relevant.
We don't need to model changes to the floating point environment,
and chose to use explicit control flow for fault handling (e.g.
div-by-zero). We might someday explore using constrained
operations for performance reasons, but up until now, haven't
really had the need to. So, no opinion, sorry. <br>

<div>I’ve got a ticket open where I would very much like some
input from maintainers of other languages that rely on llvm
and use the IRBuilder. See:</div>

<div>Teach the IRBuilder about constrained fadd and friends:</div>

<div>I’m adding support to functions like CreateFAdd() the
ability to optionally emit the constrained math intrinsics
required to support strict floating point mode. This makes
the changes in clang relatively easy, but the concern is
that there may be concerns
that haven’t been raised in the diff. And I’d like to tailor
the interface so that it meets the needs of IRBuilder users,
but ideally that wants input from actual IRBuilder users.</div>
<div><font face="Calibri"> </font></div>
<div>So, can I get some input from other front end authors and
maintainers?</div>

<div>Apologies for the cross posting, but I don’t know how to
more precisely get the attention of the relevant people.</div>
