[LLVMdev] Does llvm intrinsic function allow "complicated" arguments?

[kewuzhang]

Thank you Tom, 

Sorry for the errors, obviously I made that example wrong.
Here is the one with little bit name changes:
>  call float @ir.sample_image(%struct.image_t addrspace(1)* %tex_unit0, %struct.sampler_t addrspace(2)* inttoptr (i64 -9223372036854542193 to %struct.sampler_t addrspace(2)*), i32 1, <2 x float> %62, float %61) 

"%struct.sampler_t addrspace(2)* inttoptr (i64 -9223372036854542193 to %struct.sampler_t addrspace(2)*)” is the part give me problem, I got “constant “ for getOperand(3) call.

best
