10 /// Armv8.1m introduced MVE, M-Profile Vector Extension, and low-overhead
11 /// branches to help accelerate DSP applications. These two extensions,
12 /// combined with a new form of predication called tail-predication, can be used
13 /// to provide implicit vector predication within a low-overhead loop.
14 /// This is implicit because the predicate of active/inactive lanes is
15 /// calculated by hardware, and thus does not need to be explicitly passed
16 /// to vector instructions. The instructions responsible for this are the
17 /// DLSTP and WLSTP instructions, which setup a tail-predicated loop and the
18 /// the total number of data elements processed by the loop. The loop-end
19 /// LETP instruction is responsible for decrementing and setting the remaining
20 /// elements to be processed and generating the mask of active lanes.
21 ///
22 /// The HardwareLoops pass inserts intrinsics identifying loops that the
23 /// backend will attempt to convert into a low-overhead loop. The vectorizer is
24 /// responsible for generating a vectorized loop in which the lanes are
25 /// predicated upon an get.active.lane.mask intrinsic. This pass looks at these
26 /// get.active.lane.mask intrinsic and attempts to convert them to VCTP
27 /// instructions. This will be picked up by the ARM Low-overhead loop pass later
28 /// in the backend, which performs the final transformation to a DLSTP or WLSTP
29 /// tail-predicated loop.
