Maybe @mpaszkowski or @Anastasia can add more. I think to do this properly in LLVM would require an IR extension or something, it is maybe worth starting RFC to discuss this. Out of curiosity do you have any code that can be compiled from any GFX source language that would need a pointer size to be emitted in IR? If there is no code that can be written in such a way then using one fixed pointer width could be ok. Then the SPIR-V backend should just recognise it and lower as required. Otherwise target configurable types might be useful: https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#target-extension-type In general we tried to avoid adding bitwidth neutral SPIR-V triple originally just because LLVM always requires a pointer width. We were thinking of adding vulkan as a component to the existing SPIR-V 34|64 targets https://discourse.llvm.org/t/setting-version-environment-and-extensions-for-spir-v-target.
