Summary

This was originally a part of D46179 but got so different to unsigned versions that it's better to have it in a separate patch.

The title of this patch includes "Constant folding" - shouldn't the code be in ConstantFolding.cpp or some descendant of that?

I remember that there was a suggestion (years ago?) to split target-specific logic like this into its own files because other targets shouldn't be burdened with code that will never affect them, but this hasn't happened yet. There's x86-specific intrinsic code in ConstantFolding.cpp added with rL123206.

I added it to InstCombineCalls.cpp after @craig.topper's suggestion to do so in order to enable adding more optimizations besides constant folding in the same place.

I'm not finding the mails where the extraction of target-specific code came up, but my vague memory says @rnk had some ideas about how to improve things.

We should really remove masking from these intrinsics and use a select. But that can be a follow up.

Probably could use getIntegerBitWidth instead of getPrimitiveSizeInBits. Should be slightly cheaper since getPrimitiveSizeInBits has to detect that its an integer and then call getIntegerBitWidth.

const APInt & Val0

Isn't it possible for the element to be a ConstantExpr? In which case this case would fail

Implemented suggested changes.
Regarding masking with select - do you mean creating new avx512_padds/avx512_psubs intrinsics without masks and replacing the old calls with new intrinsic+select?

LGTM with those two formatting fixes.

There's an extra space after 'unsigned'

This is overindented.
