+    `cir.vptr` is a special type used as the type for the vptr member of a C++
+    object. This avoids using arbitrary pointer types to declare vptr values
+    and allows stronger type-based checking for operations that use or provide
+    access to the vptr.
+
+    This type will be the element type of the 'vptr' member of structures that
+    require a vtable pointer. A pointer to this type is returned by the
+    `cir.vtable.address_point` and `cir.vtable.get_vptr` operations, and this
+    pointer may be passed to the `cir.vtable.get_virtual_fn_addr` operation to
+    get the address of a virtual function pointer.
+
+    The pointer may also be cast to other pointer types in order to perform
+    pointer arithmetic based on information encoded in the AST layout to get
+    the offset from a pointer to a dynamic object to the base object pointer,
+    the base object offset value from the vtable, or the type information
+    entry for an object.
+    TODO: We should have special operations to do that too.
