While working on a MIPS16 patch, I came across an ICE on code like: (set (reg:DI 64) (unspec:DI BLAH)) (set (reg:SI PSEUDO) (reg:SI 64))
The problem was that fwprop.c:forward_propagate_and_simplify tried to replace (reg:SI 64) with (unspec:DI BLAH), i.e. it tried to replace an SImode value with a DImode one. The function already checks the modes if both the use and def are subregs. I think we should always do that. There was some discussion a while back about whether we should propagate hard regs. But I think that was in the context of propagating a hard-reg SET_SRC. In this case, BLAH only mentions pseudos, and I think propagating for: (set (reg:SI 64) (unspec:SI BLAH)) (set (reg:SI PSEUDO) (reg:SI 64)) should still be allowed. Tested on x86_64-linux-gnu and mips64-linux-gnu. Also tested by making sure that the only .o files to change between the old and new x86_64-linux-gnu stage2 and stage3 compilers were the checksum files and fwprop.o itself. Paolo, does this look OK to you? Richard gcc/ * fwprop.c (forward_propagate_and_simplify): After checking reg/subreg combinations, check whether the modes are the same.
