When I use the actual snapshot of gcc41 (gcc-4.1-20050709) to compile the small test program given below, I get an ICE.
void work1 (float* Data, float* Kern, float* Mul) { for (int i=0; i<24; i++) Mul[i] = Data[i] * Kern[i]; } int main (int argc, char **argv) { float Kern[24] __attribute__ ((aligned (16))) = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,1,2,3,4}; float Data[24] __attribute__ ((aligned (16))) = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,1,2,3,4}; float Mul [24] __attribute__ ((aligned (16))) = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,1,2,3,4}; work1(Data, Kern, Mul); return int(Mul[0]); } Since it is a similar ICE as in bug22037 I applied the patch given there, which had no effect. g++41f -O3 -ftree-vectorize -c -o vectest.o vectest.cpp vectest.cpp: In function 'int main(int, char**)': vectest.cpp:6: error: definition in block 0 follows the use for SSA_NAME: Data_97 in statement: # VUSE <Data_97>; vect_var_.45_122 = *vect_pData.46_121; vectest.cpp:6: internal compiler error: verify_ssa failed Please submit a full bug report, with preprocessed source if appropriate. g++41f -v Using built-in specs.
