[PATCH] D81500: [SVE] Remove calls to VectorType::getNumElements from IR

[Simon Pilgrim via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

RKSimon added inline comments.


================
Comment at: llvm/include/llvm/IR/MatrixBuilder.h:47
       LHS = B.CreateVectorSplat(
-          cast<VectorType>(RHS->getType())->getNumElements(), LHS,
+          cast<FixedVectorType>(RHS->getType())->getNumElements(), LHS,
           "scalar.splat");
----------------

I think CreateVectorSplat needs to be altered to take a ElementCount type instead of a raw unsigned elt count - are you in a position to do this first?
