Syntax

public static class MemoryIntrinsics

Fields

Namespace

The namespace for intrinsics that inspect or manipulate memory.

Declaration

public static readonly IntrinsicNamespace Namespace

Field Value

Type	Description
IntrinsicNamespace

Methods

CreateAllocaPinnedPrototype(IType)

Creates an instruction prototype that allocates a function-local variable that is pinned; the GC is not allowed to move the contents of the local.

Declaration

public static IntrinsicPrototype CreateAllocaPinnedPrototype(IType elementType)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
IType	elementType	The type of value to store in the pinned variable.

Returns

Type	Description
IntrinsicPrototype	An alloca-pinned instruction prototype.

CreatePrototype(String, IType, IReadOnlyList<IType>)

Creates a memory intrinsic prototype.

Declaration

public static IntrinsicPrototype CreatePrototype(string operatorName, IType resultType, IReadOnlyList<IType> parameterTypes)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
System.String	operatorName	The name of the operator represented by the memory intrinsic.
IType	resultType	The type of value produced by the intrinsic to create.
System.Collections.Generic.IReadOnlyList<IType>	parameterTypes	The types of the values the intrinsic takes as arguments.

Returns

Type	Description
IntrinsicPrototype	A memory intrinsic prototype.
