; The uniform load of %d in the following loop triggers the special
; branch costing code in LoopVectorizationCostModel::getInstructionCost.
; However, this should only affect the fixed-width cost because for
; NEON it needs to scalarize the load, whereas for SVE it can use a predicated load.
; Because of how the LoopVectorizer annotates the load to need scalarization with
; predicated blocks, this leads to different costs for the branch instruction.
;
; NOTE: This test assumes we will never use a fixed-width VF due to
; the high cost of scalarizing the masked store, however this assumption may
; break in future if we permit the use of SVE loads and stores to perform the
; fixed-width operations.
