- Renamed stdlib-sse.ll to builtins-sse.ll (etc.) in an attempt to better indicate
the fact that the stuff in those files has a role beyond implementing stuff for
the standard library.
- Moved declarations of the various __pseudo_* functions from being done with LLVM
API calls in builtins.cpp to just straight up declarations in LLVM assembly
language in builtins.m4. (Much less code to do it this way, and more clear what's
going on.)
scalar values (that ispc used to smear across the array/struct
elements). Now, initializers in variable declarations must be
{ }-delimited lists, with one element per struct member or array
element, respectively.
There were a few problems with the previous implementation of the
functionality to initialize from scalars. First, the expression
would be evaluated once per value initialized, so if it had side-effects,
the wrong thing would happen. Next, for large multidimensional arrays,
the generated code would be a long series of move instructions, rather
than loops (and this in turn made LLVM take a long time.)
While both of these problems are fixable, it's a non-trivial
amount of re-plumbing for a questionable feature anyway.
Fixes issue #50.
