+floating-point or vector of floating-point type. The type of the exponent
+should typically match the size of ``int``, at least when the intrinsic maps
+to one of the ``__powi*`` functions in compiler-rt. Not all targets support

I see your point. Maybe something like "The type of the exponent should match the libm implementation for a target that lower the intrinsic to such a libcall.". Or maybe I should just skip trying to say something about it here.


================
Comment at: llvm/lib/CodeGen/SelectionDAG/LegalizeFloatTypes.cpp:573
   unsigned Offset = IsStrict ? 1 : 0;
-  assert(N->getOperand(1 + Offset).getValueType() == MVT::i32 &&
+  assert((N->getOperand(1 + Offset).getValueType() == MVT::i16 ||
+          N->getOperand(1 + Offset).getValueType() == MVT::i32) &&
----------------

I think that i16 and i32 are the only sizes of "int" that are supported by any in-tree target. And people tend to get very upset if trying to generalize code outside the scope given by in-tree targets.

+; RUN: opt -instcombine -S < %s -mtriple unknown -disable-builtin sqrt  | FileCheck %s --check-prefixes=CHECK,CHECKI32,NOSQRT
+; RUN: opt -instcombine -S < %s -mtriple msp430                        | FileCheck %s --check-prefixes=CHECK,CHECKI16,SQRT
+; RUN: opt -instcombine -S < %s -mtriple msp430 -disable-builtin sqrt  | FileCheck %s --check-prefixes=CHECK,CHECKI16,NOSQRT
----------------
Need to move these tests to a msp430 subdir.

Yes, right, I need to move this.
