+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+LLVM provides an intrinsic for compressing data within a vector based on a selection mask.
+Semantically, this is similar to :ref:`llvm.masked.compressstore <int_compressstore>` but with weaker assumptions
+and without storing the results to memory, i.e., the data remains in the vector.
+
+Syntax:
+"""""""
+This is an overloaded intrinsic. A number of scalar values of integer, floating point or pointer data type are collected
+from an input vector and placed adjacently within the result vector. A mask defines which elements to collect from the vector.
+The remaining lanes are filled with values from ``passthru``.
+
+:: code-block:: llvm
+
+      declare <8 x i32> @llvm.masked.compress.v8i32(<8 x i32> <value>, <8 x i1> <mask>, <8 x i32> <passthru>)
+      declare <16 x float> @llvm.masked.compress.v16f32(<16 x float> <value>, <16 x i1> <mask>, <16 x float> undef)
+
+Overview:
+"""""""""
+
+Selects elements from input vector '``value``' according to the '``mask``'.
+All selected elements are written into adjacent lanes in the result vector, from lower to higher.
+The mask holds an entry for each vector lane, and is used to select elements to be kept.
+If ``passthru`` is undefined, the number of valid lanes is equal to the number of ``true`` entries in the mask, i.e., all lanes >= number-of-selected-values are undefined.
+If a ``passthru`` vector is given, all remaining lanes are filled with the corresponding lane's value from ``passthru``.
+The main difference to :ref:`llvm.masked.compressstore <int_compressstore>` is that the we do not need to guard against memory access for unselected lanes.

What does `@llvm.masked.compressstore` currently do with undef or poison mask elements? It would be nice if they were consistent
