[LLVMdev] Error in the example of sext instruction in reference manual

[Bin Tzeng]

Hi all,

There might be a simple error in the LLVM reference manual. The example for
sext instruction:

%X = sext i8 -1 to i16     ; yields i16    :65535

%X should yield i16: -1, as opposed to 65535.
Here is the simple patch (also attached):

-      %X = sext i8  -1 to i16              ; yields i16   :65535
+      %X = sext i8  -1 to i16              ; yields i16:-1
       %Y = sext i1 true to i32             ; yields i32:-1
       %Z = sext <2 x i16> <i16 8, i16 7> to <2 x i32> ; yields <i32 8, i32
7>


Thanks!
Bin
