These `_bytewap_*` in `intrin.h` were not intended as optimization, instead, it is expected to be consistent with declarations in `stdlib.h`. For optimization, it makes sense to enable it for all architectures supported by Windows, and make sure it works with LLD. https://github.com/llvm-mirror/lld/blob/b6584c3fab115aa46dad27681af7eb3d4e5d2b35/COFF/InputFiles.cpp#L494 CHANGES SINCE LAST ACTION https://reviews.llvm.org/D57915/new/ https://reviews.llvm.org/D57915 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
