[llvm-dev] unable to emit vectorized code in LLVM IR

even if i make my code as follows: vectorized instructions not get emitted.
What to do?

int main(int argc, char** argv) {
int a[1000], b[1000], c[1000]; int g=0;
int aa=atoi(argv[1]), bb=atoi(argv[2]);
for (int i=0; i<1000; i++) {
a[i]=aa, b[i]=bb;
 c[i]=a[i] + b[i];
g+=c[i];
}

printf("sum: %d\n", g);

return 0;
}
