llvm_intrinsic[intrin: StringSlice[StaticConstantOrigin], type: TrivialRegisterPassable, *types: AnyType, *, has_side_effect: Bool = True](*args: *types.values) -> type

Calls an LLVM intrinsic with the name intrin and return type type.

Parameters:

  • ​intrin (StringSlice): The name of the llvm intrinsic.
  • ​type (TrivialRegisterPassable): The return type of the intrinsic.
  • ​*types (AnyType): The argument types for the function.
  • ​has_side_effect (Bool): If True the intrinsic will have side effects, otherwise its pure.

Args:

  • ​*args (*types.values): The arguments to the function.

Returns:

type: The result of calling the llvm intrinsic with no arguments.
