--- Comment #2 from Oleg Endo <oleg.e...@t-online.de> 2011-12-27 21:26:33 UTC --- (In reply to comment #1) > > BTW, OT, (a != b || a != c) ? b : c could be reduced to b, I think. > Yes, very much so. It is reduced to "return b" for -m2, -m2e, -m2a, -m3, -m3e but not for -m1 and -m4*. The correct test function should be rather: int test_func_0_NG (int a, int b, int c, int d) { return (a != b || a != d) ? b : c; } which is actually OK for all variants except -m1 and -m4*: cmp/eq r5,r4 ! 11 cmpeqsi_t/3 [length = 2] bf.s .L6 ! 12 branch_false [length = 2] cmp/eq r7,r5 ! 14 cmpeqsi_t/3 [length = 2] bf .L6 ! 15 branch_false [length = 2] mov r6,r5 ! 8 movsi_i/2 [length = 2] .L6: rts ! 42 *return_i [length = 2] mov r5,r0 ! 23 movsi_i/2 [length = 2]
