            Bug ID: 31802
           Summary: Count Leading Ones does not work properly on ARMv8
                    (should lower to CLS) ?
           Product: clang
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: PC
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P
         Component: LLVM Codegen
          Assignee: unassignedclangbugs at nondot.org
          Reporter: gonzalobg88 at gmail.com
                CC: llvm-bugs at lists.llvm.org
    Classification: Unclassified

One can implement count leading ones (or count leading significant bits) as
follows:

unsigned cls(unsigned i) {
  return __builtint_clz(!i);
}

I would expect this code to generate the cls instruction on aarch64 but i don't
seem to be able to generate this instruction at all.
