--- Comment #12 from CVS Commits <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The master branch has been updated by William Schmidt <wschm...@gcc.gnu.org>: https://gcc.gnu.org/g:48bd780ee327c9ae6ffc0641e73cc1f4939fb204 commit r12-7030-g48bd780ee327c9ae6ffc0641e73cc1f4939fb204 Author: Bill Schmidt <wschm...@linux.ibm.com> Date: Wed Feb 2 21:30:27 2022 -0600 rs6000: Remove -m[no-]fold-gimple flag [PR103686] The -m[no-]fold-gimple flag was really intended primarily for internal testing while implementing GIMPLE folding for rs6000 vector built-in functions. It ended up leaking into other places, causing problems such as PR103686 identifies. Let's remove it. There are a number of tests in the testsuite that require adjustment. Some specify -mfold-gimple directly, which is the default, so that is handled by removing the option. Others unnecessarily specify -mno-fold-gimple, as the tests work fine without this. Again that is handled by removing the option. There are a couple of extra variants of tests specifically for -mno-fold-gimple; for those, we can just remove the whole test. gcc.target/powerpc/builtins-1.c was more problematic. It was written in such a way as to be extremely fragile. For this one, I rewrote the whole test in a different style, using individual functions to test each built-in function. These same tests are also largely covered by builtins-1-be-folded.c and builtins-1-le-folded.c, so I chose to explicitly make this test -mbig for simplicity, and use -O2 for clean code generation. I made some slight modifications to the expected instruction counts as a result, and tested on both 32- and 64-bit. 2022-02-02 Bill Schmidt <wschm...@linux.ibm.com> gcc/ PR target/103686 * config/rs6000/rs6000-builtin.cc (rs6000_gimple_fold_builtin): Remove test for !rs6000_fold_gimple. * config/rs6000/rs6000.cc (rs6000_option_override_internal): Likewise. * config/rs6000/rs6000.opt (mfold-gimple): Remove. gcc/testsuite/ PR target/103686 * gcc.target/powerpc/builtins-1-be-folded.c: Remove -mfold-gimple option. * gcc.target/powerpc/builtins-1-le-folded.c: Likewise. * gcc.target/powerpc/builtins-1.c: Rewrite to use small functions and restrict to -O2 -mbig for predictability.
