When creating function Symbols for functions that were defined in LLVM bitcode for the standard library, if any of the function parameters are integer types, create two ispc-side Symbols: one where the integer types are all signed and the other where they are all unsigned. This allows us to provide, for example, both store_to_int16(reference int a[], uniform int offset, int val) as well as store_to_int16(reference unsigned int a[], uniform int offset, unsigned int val). functions.
Added some additional tests to exercise the new variants of these.
Also fixed some cases where the __{load,store}_int{8,16} builtins would read from/write to memory even if the mask was all off (which could cause crashes in some cases.)
============================== Intel(r) SPMD Program Compiler ============================== Welcome to the Intel(r) SPMD Program Compiler (ispc)! ispc is a new compiler for "single program, multiple data" (SPMD) programs. Under the SPMD model, the programmer writes a program that mostly appears to be a regular serial program, though the execution model is actually that a number of program instances execute in parallel on the hardware. ispc compiles a C-based SPMD programming language to run on the SIMD units of CPUs; it frequently provides a a 3x or more speedup on CPUs with 4-wide SSE units, without any of the difficulty of writing intrinsics code. ispc is an open source compiler under the BSD license; see the file LICENSE.txt. ispc supports Windows, Mac, and Linux, with both x86 and x86-64 targets. It currently supports the SSE2 and SSE4 instruction sets, though support for AVX should be available soon. For more information and examples, as well as a wiki and the bug database, see the ispc distribution site, http://ispc.github.com.
