     The sret type argument specifies the in memory type, which must be

+``elementtype(<ty>)``
+
+    The ``elementtype`` argument attribute can be used to specify a pointer
+    element type in a way that is compatible with `opaque pointers
+    <OpaquePointers.html>`.
+
+    The ``elementtype`` attribute by itself does not carry any specific
+    semantics. However, certain intrinsics may require this attribute to be
+    present and assign it particular semantics. This will be documented on
+    individual intrinsics.
+
+    The attribute may only be applied to pointer typed arguments. For
+    non-opaque pointers, the type passed to ``elementtype`` must match the
+    pointer element type.
