GCC has the alloc_align attribute, which is similar to assume_aligned, except the attribute's parameter is the index of the integer parameter that needs aligning to.

This is the required LLVM changes to make this happen.

There is no client of the API in LLVM? Can you link this revision to the one that is using this in Clang?

Nevermind our messages crossed :)

Mehdi- Did you get a chance to take a look at this?

Thanks!

I think we should do a signed cast. If the original value is negative, then we want to preserve it and then choose "0".

Sorry, I missed this one in my previous comment.
Now, that we are creating a signed cast, the comparison should be signed as well (ICMP_SGT).
This will also affect the tests in the clang part of the review.
