[LLVMdev] [LLVMDev] Is there any way to eliminate zero-extension instruction?

[minwook Ahn]

Thank you for your reply.

In case of setcc, I saw it was removed.

But I could not delete the extension instruction in other cases of zero
extension from i1 to i32.

For example, in this case.

int main( int argc, char *argv[] ) {
   int i = ( argc > 0 ) & ( argv != NULL );
   return i;
}

So can you let us know how to remove it?

Thank you in advance.

p.s. Sorry for the duplicated message if you get this twice.
