--- Comment #4 from Jakub Jelinek <jakub at gcc dot gnu.org> --- So, do we want something like --- gcc/gimple-fold.cc.jj 2023-11-02 12:15:12.205998817 +0100 +++ gcc/gimple-fold.cc 2023-11-30 20:24:01.092095623 +0100 @@ -5083,12 +5083,16 @@ gimple_fold_builtin (gimple_stmt_iterato return gimple_fold_builtin_bzero (gsi); case BUILT_IN_MEMSET: + if (!optimize) + return false; return gimple_fold_builtin_memset (gsi, gimple_call_arg (stmt, 1), gimple_call_arg (stmt, 2)); case BUILT_IN_MEMCPY: case BUILT_IN_MEMPCPY: case BUILT_IN_MEMMOVE: + if (!optimize) + return false; return gimple_fold_builtin_memory_op (gsi, gimple_call_arg (stmt, 0), gimple_call_arg (stmt, 1), fcode); case BUILT_IN_SPRINTF_CHK: (and repeat for many other builtins)? I'm afraid we can't do if (!optimize) return false; for all builtins in gimple_fold_builtin, because some builtins by design must be always folded and never expand. E.g. __builtin_clear_padding, __builtin_{clz,ctz,clrsb,ffs,popcount,parity}g, __builtin_{add,sub,mul}_overflow{,_p} and many others. expand_builtin has /* When not optimizing, generate calls to library functions for a certain set of builtins. */ if (!optimize && !called_as_built_in (fndecl) && fcode != BUILT_IN_FORK && fcode != BUILT_IN_EXECL && fcode != BUILT_IN_EXECV && fcode != BUILT_IN_EXECLP && fcode != BUILT_IN_EXECLE && fcode != BUILT_IN_EXECVP && fcode != BUILT_IN_EXECVE && fcode != BUILT_IN_CLEAR_CACHE && !ALLOCA_FUNCTION_CODE_P (fcode) && fcode != BUILT_IN_FREE && (fcode != BUILT_IN_MEMSET || !(flag_inline_stringops & ILSOP_MEMSET)) && (fcode != BUILT_IN_MEMCPY || !(flag_inline_stringops & ILSOP_MEMCPY)) && (fcode != BUILT_IN_MEMMOVE || !(flag_inline_stringops & ILSOP_MEMMOVE)) && (fcode != BUILT_IN_MEMCMP || !(flag_inline_stringops & ILSOP_MEMCMP))) return expand_call (exp, target, ignore); Perhaps just a general if (!optimize && !called_as_built_in (fndecl)) return false; at the start of gimple_fold_builtin? Or do we want to let some exceptions? Do we also apply GIMPLE match.pd simplification at -O0?
