--- Comment #3 from Krister Walfridsson <kristerw at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The test still fails for me when running on qemu with a compiler built from today's source code (64d31343d4676d8ceef9232dcd33824bc2eff330). FWIW, the function foo is generated as: foo: lui a4,%hi(y) lui a5,%hi(x) lbu a5,%lo(x)(a5) lbu a3,%lo(y)(a4) lui a2,%hi(result) sub a4,a5,a3 xor a3,a5,a3 xor a5,a5,a4 and a5,a5,a3 srli a5,a5,7 neg a3,a5 addi a5,a5,-1 and a5,a4,a5 andi a4,a3,127 or a5,a5,a4 sb a5,%lo(result)(a2) ret This is identical to the code generated in Compiler Explorer for the trunk compiler (https://godbolt.org/z/Krvd33K1j) so I do not think I have messed up my environment...
