Hi,
I've found a bug in store_bit_field_1 for BIG_ENDIAN targets whose words
are HI. The testcase is execute.exp=bitfld-3.c for my target (which is
not public).
It occurs on 4.6.1 release, but seem to be present in trunk (looking at
the code, not executed).
The problem occurs when value is a REG and bitsize > BITS_PER_WORD. This
is because wordnum, which is used to get the subword of value, is
incorrectly computed, in BIG_ENDIAN, wrt the number of words needed by
bitsize instead of the number of words needed by the integer mode of the
field, which is the mode used to compute subwords.
For instance, for a 40bit field to be set by a DI reg (with HI words),
the offset of the LSWord of the DI reg should be 3, not 2 as currently
computed.
The following patch seems to solve the issue. Tested on the C testsuite
without any regression (for my target only).
Hope it helps,
Aurélien
