When I was trying to benchmark another patch (which I'll be sending

like this:
/tmp/ccJv2faG.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccJv2faG.s:1605: Error: a destination register must be supplied
`jalr $31'
JALR patterns should have an explicit clobber of $31, which I thought
was also supposed to stop $31 from being used as the call address.
Hmmmmm. Yes, that ought to work, in theory....
Do you have a testcase?
I can reproduce the error in a current mipsisa64-elfoabi build, with my
patch to delete ADJUST_REG_ALLOC_ORDER applied. It triggers on this
file from CSiBE:
mipsisa64-elfoabi-gcc -c -mabi=64 -O2 -fno-common -w
csibe/src/./ttt-0.10.1.preproc/src/connect4.i
I had some difficulty in regression-testing this patch because of
unrelated problems on trunk in the past week -- at first I was getting
ICEs due to a null pointer dereference in tree code, then when I tried
again a couple days later trunk was not even building.
Could you give more details?
I think both of these problems have been fixed now, or at least I can
build things again. The tree null pointer dereference was probably the
same thing you discussed here
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-05/msg00677.html
and the build failures seemed like this one
