Currently __builtin_annotation() only annotates an i32.
i32 __builtin_annotation(i32, string); Applying it to i64 (e.g., long long) generates the following IR. trunc i64 {{.*}} to i32 call i32 @llvm.annotation.i32 zext i32 {{.*}} to i64 The redundant truncation and extension make the result difficult to use. This patch makes __builtin_annotation() generic. type __builtin_annotation(type, string); For the i64 example, it simplifies the generated IR to: call i64 @llvm.annotation.i64 Patch by Xi Wang! llvm-svn: 155764
