[Bug tree-optimization/32826] New: Reduction into a global variable causes a Load Hit Store Hazard (for the Cell)

[pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org]

Testcase (compile at -O2 -maltivec -ftree-vectorize):
int a[16*100];
int e;
float f(void)
{
  int i;
  int e1;
  e1 = e;
  for(i = 0;i<16*100;i++)
    e1 += a[i];
  e = e1;
}

----------- cut ------
Currently you get:
        stvewx v1,0,r2
        lis r2,ha16(_e)
        lwz r0,-20(r1)   <---- LHS hazard
        stw r0,lo16(_e)(r2)

Even though the elements of v1 will all be the same, so GCC could do:
        lis r2,ha16(_e)
        add r2, lo16(_e)(r2)
        stvewx v1,0,r2
