------- Comment #7 from fredrik dot svahn at gmail dot com 2010-01-06 23:00 ------- Summary: The patch works great when building gcc from trunk (revision 155680). Both supplied test program and real application are optimized.
With gcc-4.4.2 I get the optimization for the test program only with e.g. -march=athlon64 or -mtune=native (which is an improvement, previously I could not get it to work even with these options). Without -mtune/-march optimization seems to bail out on the following check in bb-reorder.c@@duplicate_computed_gotos(void): /* Obviously the block has to end in a computed jump. */ if (!computed_jump_p (BB_END (bb))) continue; I assume the patch was written for 4.5 so maybe testing it on 4.4.2 is a bit premature. Hope it helps anyway. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42621
