[PATCH] D42885: [AMDGPU] intrintrics for byte/short load/store

[Matt Arsenault via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

arsenm added inline comments.


================
Comment at: lib/Target/AMDGPU/SIISelLowering.cpp:5642-5650
+      // set node opcode if buffer_load_byte/short
+      if (Op.hasOneUse()) {
+        if (M->use_begin()->getOpcode() == ISD::SIGN_EXTEND) {
+          if (LoadVT.getScalarType() == MVT::i8)
+            Opc = AMDGPUISD::BUFFER_LOAD_BYTE;
+          else
+            Opc = AMDGPUISD::BUFFER_LOAD_SHORT;
----------------
You shouldn't be inspecting the users. You can just unconditionally use one or the other. You're going to have to insert a truncate back to the original type at the end anyway. You can then add a separate optimization to fold in the sext_inreg or mask into the buffer like is done for loads
