'``llvm.vectorizer.width``' Metadata
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This metadata forces the loop vectorizer to widen scalar values to a vector
width of ``N`` rather than computing the width using a cost model.
This metadata sets the target width of the vectorizer to ``N``. Without
this metadata, the vectorizer will choose a width automatically.
Regardless of this metadata, the vectorizer will only vectorize loops if
it believes it is valid to do so.
The first operand is the string ``llvm.vectorizer.width`` and the second
operand is an integer specifying the width. For example:
