pass_insert_vzeroupper is under condition TARGET_AVX && TARGET_VZEROUPPER && flag_expensive_optimizations && !optimize_size
But the document of mvzeroupper doesn't mention the insertion required -O2 and above, it may confuse users when they explicitly use -Os -mvzeroupper. ------------ mvzeroupper Target Mask(VZEROUPPER) Save Generate vzeroupper instruction before a transfer of control flow out of the function. ------------ The patch moves flag_expensive_optimizations && !optimize_size to ix86_option_override_internal. It makes -mvzeroupper independent of optimization level, but still keeps the behavior of architecture tuning(emit_vzeroupper) unchanged. Bootstrapped and regtested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu{-m32,}. Ok for trunk? gcc/ChangeLog: * config/i386/i386-features.cc (pass_insert_vzeroupper:gate): Move flag_expensive_optimizations && !optimize_size to .. * config/i386/i386-options.cc (ix86_option_override_internal): .. this, it makes -mvzeroupper independent of optimization level, but still keeps the behavior of architecture tuning(emit_vzeroupper) unchanged. gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gcc.target/i386/avx-vzeroupper-29.c: New testcase. --- gcc/config/i386/i386-features.cc | 3 +-- gcc/config/i386/i386-options.cc | 4 +++- gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/i386/avx-vzeroupper-29.c | 14 ++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 18 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) create mode 100644 gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/i386/avx-vzeroupper-29.c diff --git a/gcc/config/i386/i386-features.cc b/gcc/config/i386/i386-features.cc index 4a3b07ae045..92ae08d442e 100644 --- a/gcc/config/i386/i386-features.cc +++ b/gcc/config/i386/i386-features.cc @@ -2489,8 +2489,7 @@ public: /* opt_pass methods: */ bool gate (function *) final override { - return TARGET_AVX && TARGET_VZEROUPPER - && flag_expensive_optimizations && !optimize_size; + return TARGET_AVX && TARGET_VZEROUPPER; } unsigned int execute (function *) final override diff --git a/gcc/config/i386/i386-options.cc b/gcc/config/i386/i386-options.cc index 2cb0bddcd35..f76e7c5947b 100644 --- a/gcc/config/i386/i386-options.cc +++ b/gcc/config/i386/i386-options.cc @@ -2727,7 +2727,9 @@ ix86_option_override_internal (bool main_args_p, sorry ("%<-mcall-ms2sysv-xlogues%> isn%'t currently supported with SEH"); if (!(opts_set->x_target_flags & MASK_VZEROUPPER) - && TARGET_EMIT_VZEROUPPER) + && TARGET_EMIT_VZEROUPPER + && flag_expensive_optimizations + && !optimize_size) opts->x_target_flags |= MASK_VZEROUPPER; if (!(opts_set->x_target_flags & MASK_STV)) opts->x_target_flags |= MASK_STV; diff --git a/gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/i386/avx-vzeroupper-29.c b/gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/i386/avx-vzeroupper-29.c new file mode 100644 index 00000000000..4af637757f7 --- /dev/null +++ b/gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/i386/avx-vzeroupper-29.c @@ -0,0 +1,14 @@ +/* { dg-do compile } */ +/* { dg-options "-O0 -mavx -mtune=generic -mvzeroupper -dp" } */ + +#include <immintrin.h> + +extern __m256 x, y; + +void +foo () +{ + x = y; +} + +/* { dg-final { scan-assembler-times "avx_vzeroupper" 1 } } */ -- 2.39.1.388.g2fc9e9ca3c
