I was not sure if I can safely use operand_equal_p. What happens for fields with variable offsets when I inline two copies of same function which takes size as parameter and make the size different? Will I get here proper SSA name so operand_equal_p will work? If so, I still see no point for fast-path for DECL_OFFSET_ALIGN. In many cases BIT_OFFSET will be just 0, so even if offset alignments are different we are likely going to hit this fast path avoiding parsing trees later. > > > + /* Note that it may be possible to use component_ref_field_offset > > + which would provide offsets as trees.

Even > when considering canonical type merging? Because the types I am comparing may not have same canonical types. nonoverlapping_component_refs_since_match_p is called when we prove that base pointers are the same (even with -fno-strict-aliasing). In such cases the access paths may be based on completely different types. The point of nonoverlapping_component_refs_since_match_p is to match them as far as possible when they are semantically equivalent in hope to get non-overlapping refs in the last step. This is stronger than the get_base_ref_and_extend based check in presence of non-constant ARRAY_REFs. Honza
