[llvm-commits] x86 branch sequence optimization in LLVM code gen: please review

[Umansky, Victor]

Hi Bruno, 

Please see attached the patch.

It incorporates the feedback, and I yet extended it with coverage for more LLVM IR patterns related to usage of ptestz/ptestc LLVM built-ins (tests are also extended).

Best Regards,
   Victor

LGTM, please resend the orignal patch with the testcase (both in the
same patch file)! Also remove the trailing CRs and generate the diff
with "svn diff" under the project root. If you have any question, the
docs may help: http://llvm.org/docs/DeveloperPolicy.html#patches
