+    The typeinfo data for a given class is stored into an ArrayAttr. The
+    layout is determined by the C++ ABI used (clang only implements
+    itanium on CIRGen).
+
+    The verifier enforces that the output type is always a `!cir.record`,
+    and that the ArrayAttr element types match the equivalent member type
+    for the resulting record, i.e, a GlobalViewAttr for symbol reference or
+    an IntAttr for flags.
+

+
+    ```
+    cir.global "private" external @_ZTVN10__cxxabiv120__si_class_type_infoE : !cir.ptr<i32>
