At the above link it was suggested that genattrab.c generated a switch
statement instead. I have made a patch that does just that.

Some preliminaries first - I don't see your name in existing ChangeLogs; am I correct in assuming you've not gone through the copyright assignment process?

Secondly, we're currently in a development phase where we only accept bug fixes for gcc-6. You should resubmit/ping the patch once stage1 opens again.

     * genattrtab.c (check_attr_set_switch): implemented the function
     (write_attr_set): Check if expression can be written as a switch

Please review our coding and documentation standards. ChangeLog entries should be complete sentences (or sometimes brief short-hands: the first one should just be "New function.")

+static int check_attr_set_switch (FILE *outf, rtx exp,
+                    unsigned int attrs_cached, int write_cases, int
indent);

No reason to declare it if it is defined before its use.
+  while (1)
+  {

This and everything else here looks like it isn't following our indentation rules.

No i have not gone through copyright assignment.
This is my first time trying to contribute to a GNU project so i have tried following the "Contributing to GCC" at https://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html There i followed the advice to run the patch through contrib/check_GNU_style.sh and it came out clean. Maybe contrib/check_GNU_style.sh does not check for indention rules and/or my editor is set up wrongly so it looked to me like i was following the coding standard.

I did not know you only accepted bug fixes though one could argue that this fixes a (style)bug in generated code.
