71	71	== Add new MachOps to Cmm code ==
72		It may make more sense to add the MachOps to Cmm prior to implementing the PrimOps (or at least before adding the code to the CgPrimOp.hs file). The primary files that are involved in adding Cmm instructions are:

There is a useful [http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Commentary/Compiler/CmmType#AdditionsinCmm Cmm Wiki Page] available to aid in the definition of the new Cmm operations.

75		Some existing Cmm instructions may be able to be reused, but there will have to be additional instructions added to account for vectorization primitives.
	77	Some existing Cmm instructions may be able to be reused, but there will have to be additional instructions added to account for vectorization primitives. I'm still a little curious why these new instructions should not be built as out-of-line PrimOps. It should be noted that the reference for adding primops appears to be wildly out of data for adding out-of-line primops.
