The 'bitcast' instruction takes a value to cast, which must be a first class value, and a type to cast it to, which must also be a first class type. The bit sizes of value -and the destination type, ty2, must be identical.

+and the destination type, ty2, must be identical. If the source +type is a pointer, the destination type must also be a pointer.

The 'bitcast' instruction converts value to type
