Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Severity|normal |enhancement --- Comment #1 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> --- This is a scheduling interacting with the register allocator. the "mov w0, 0" is moved before the load/stores and that clobbers x0. Using -fno-schedule-insns, we get: adrp x1, top add x1, x1, :lo12:top ldr d1, [x1, x0, lsl 3] fadd d1, d1, d0 str d1, [x1, x0, lsl 3] mov w0, 0 ret Which shows this is exactly the scheduler before register allocator which is causing it.
