Changes to the LLVM IR
----------------------
+* The callsite attribute `vector-function-abi-variant
+ <https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#call-site-attributes>`_ has been
+ added to describe the mapping between scalar functions and vector
+ functions, to enable vectorization of call sites. The information
+ provided by the attribute is interfaced via the API provided by the
+ ``VFDatabase`` class.
