ptx instructions emitting by nvidia compiler

I recently became curious what exactly ptx instructions can produce nvidia compiler - like if it uses something totally undocumented or vice versa - some official ptx instructions are never generated during compilation

The first thing is where those compiler located - no, it's not nvcc. Real compiler is cicc from packet cuda-nvvm. cicc from v10 has size 21Mb. The strings utility shows many interesting things, like

Based on Edison Design Group C/C++ Front End

So they use front-end from Edison Design Group and llvm as back-end

Then I extracted several tables:

1. compiler errors
2. list of built-in functions with prototypes
3. list of llvm attributes - as you can see they are mostly correspond to nvvm LLVM dialect
4. and finally what I looked for - list with internal instruction names & their bodies to place into PTX file

As you can see mapping is very straightforward - for example for instruction BFE_S32rii (index 0x27) generating PTX bfe.s32

Results

I found only minor PTX instructions not presented in their official documentations: suq.xxx - perhaps should mean surface qword or something like this
