For: int *f(int *a, int b, int c) { int i; a --; *a = 1; for (i = 0;i<b;i+=c) (a[i]) = 0; return a; } ----------------CUT---------------- I get in the final_cleanup: MEM[index: ivtmp.35, offset: 4294967292] = 0;
And I noticed that ivtmp.29 is of type "long unsigned int" which seems wrong as it is actually the pointer. I think this in the end could also cause PR 28690 too. Anyways the assembly in the ends up to be: L4: add r9,r9,r5 li r2,0 subf r0,r5,r9 stw r2,-4(r3) cmpw cr7,r4,r0 add r3,r3,r11 bgt+ cr7,L4 Which is bad, I will file a bug about not pulling out the "li r2, 0" in another bug (that is a regression too). But we have an add and a sub -4 which is just wrong. we should be able to use stwx instead which we did in 4.0.2. -- Summary: IV-OPTs produces a weird MEM_REF Product: gcc Version: 4.3.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Keywords: missed-optimization Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: tree-optimization AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org GCC target triplet: powerpc-darwin http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31358
