Ilya Leoshkevich <iii at linux dot ibm.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |iii at linux dot ibm.com --- Comment #3 from Ilya Leoshkevich <iii at linux dot ibm.com> --- There main problem here is that `register long double f0 asm ("f0")` does not make sense on z14 anymore. long doubles are stored in vector registers now, not in floating-point register pairs. If we skip the hard reg, the code will end up having the following semantics: vr0[0:128] = 1.0L; asm("/* expect the value in vr0[0:64] . vr2[0:64] */"); and fail during the run time. So I think it's better to use the "best effort" approach and force it into a pseudo, even if this would mean that the user-specified register is not honored: --- a/gcc/config/s390/s390.c +++ b/gcc/config/s390/s390.c @@ -16814,6 +16814,12 @@ s390_md_asm_adjust (vec<rtx> &outputs, vec<rtx> &inputs, gcc_assert (allows_reg); /* Copy input value from a vector register into a FPR pair. */ rtx fprx2 = gen_reg_rtx (FPRX2mode); + if (REG_P (inputs[i]) && HARD_REGISTER_P (inputs[i])) + { + rtx orig_input = inputs[i]; + inputs[i] = gen_reg_rtx (TFmode); + emit_move_insn (inputs[i], orig_input); + } emit_insn (gen_tf_to_fprx2 (fprx2, inputs[i])); inputs[i] = fprx2; input_modes[i] = FPRX2mode; I need to check whether we can keep the output logic as is. Ideally the code should be adapted and use the __LONG_DOUBLE_VX__ macro like this: #ifdef __LONG_DOUBLE_VX__ register long double f0 asm ("v0"); #else register long double f0 asm ("f0"); #endif f0 = 1.0L; #ifdef __LONG_DOUBLE_VX__ asm("" : : "v" (f0)); #else asm("" : : "f" (f0)); #endif Maybe a warning recommending to do this should be printed.
