fhahn added inline comments.


================
Comment at: llvm/lib/Transforms/Vectorize/LoopVectorize.cpp:8112
   // When not folding the tail, use nullptr to model all-true mask.
-  if (!CM.foldTailByMasking()) {
+  if (!CM.foldTailByMasking() || CM.useVPIVectorization()) {
     BlockMaskCache[Header] = nullptr;

yes, that should be broadcasted across all vector lanes
