Right I see now. Yes given offset_within_block_p is not sufficient, we could test both conditions. Here is the updated patch: diff --git a/gcc/config/aarch64/aarch64.c b/gcc/config/aarch64/aarch64.c index 7ee31a66b12d7354759f06449955e933421f5fe0..31c394a7e8567dd7d4f1698e5ba98aeb8807df38 100644 --- a/gcc/config/aarch64/aarch64.c +++ b/gcc/config/aarch64/aarch64.c @@ -14079,26 +14079,30 @@ aarch64_classify_symbol (rtx x, HOST_WIDE_INT offset) the offset does not cause overflow of the final address.
