In define_expand (or define_insn of a standard named pattern) you can't use
operands, those conditions are used to select whether the given insn is
available at all. But you can use it in define_insn conditions for other
insn patterns.
So you can have
(define_expand "iorqi3"
...
"")
(define_insn "*iorqi3"
...
"register_operand (operands[1], QImode) || register_operand (operands[2],
QImode)"
...
)
See config/i386/i386.md for thousands of examples.
