Method lane_type

cranelift/codegen/src/ir/types.rs:40–46

Get the lane type of this SIMD vector type. A lane type is the same as a SIMD vector type with one lane, so it returns itself.

    /// The type transformation that returns the lane type of a type variable; it is just a
    /// renaming of lane_type() to be used in context where we think in terms of type variable
