ptx instructions emitting by nvidia compiler. part 2

Part 1 described v10

And today let's check cicc v12. The first thing that catches your eye is its size - almost 76Mb! And it also contains at least 5 different decryptors - Nvidia really wants to hide something from its grateful clients

Why it is so fat?

Bcs it contains at least 4 code generators: for arm32, aarch64, x86 & nvptx

+ at least 27 llvm bytecode blobs (signature 0x42 0x43 0xc0 0xde) - they contains mostly bodies of intrinsic functions like nvvm_mulq/nvvm_divq but on some llvm-dis just crashes:

At least they should check that index can become negative, no? Who would doubt that llvm is very reliable and secure

So if they process llvm ByteCode then they also must link half of llvm run-time to do it, but they also use
