Supporting ranges in the byte code requires additional complexity, given that a range can't be easily representable as an opaque void *, as is possible with the existing bytecode value types (Attribute, Type, Value, etc.). To enable representing a range with void *, an auxillary storage is used for the actual range itself, with the pointer being passed around in the normal byte code memory. For type ranges, a TypeRange is stored. For value ranges, a ValueRange is stored. The above problem represents a majority of the complexity involved in this revision, the rest is adapting/adding byte code operations to support the changes made to the PDL interpreter in the parent revision.
After this revision, PDL will have initial end-to-end support for variadic operands/results.
Depends On D95722
Is there no helper that covers these? Seems like a tagged union with generic pointer
