Thanks! To bikeshed this a bit, maybe ty_int_or_vec128? The name ty_iconst can make sense in retrospect once it's understood what it does but just by reading it it's not clear.
Another possibility is ty_int_lane because in Cranelift I believe all types are considered to have lanes, and scalars just have one lane

This resolves #13229
Cause 1
bitops such as
band,bor, ... are not constrained to receive only integer inputs likeiadd,isub, andicmp.The IR builder shows this fact:
Note that there is no float input for
iadd, whereasbandcan take float inputs.Cause 2
iconst_sandiconst_uprovide convenient ways to construct constants on RHS, but they are the main contract breaker of ISLE type system. They are declared as non-partial terms, while their definition is not total. They only work for integer and vec128 types and this is why we need type guards to use them. This fact is not explicitly encoded in the declaration of the terms. I guess this is not a proper way to use ISLE, since we cannot trust the ISLE compiler and the ISLE ruleset in this way... But, to fix this, I guess we need more discussions that could easily go out of the scope of fix, so I want to leave this as a future work.Fix
