Back when I modified gcc 2.95.3 to produce PIC code for NetBSD/vax, I changed
the patterns in vax.md to be more specific with the instructions that got
matched. The one advantage (to me as the writer) was it made it much easier
to track down what pattern caused what instruction to be emitted.
For instance:
(define_insn "*pushal"
[(set (match_operand:SI 0 "push_operand" "=g")
(match_operand:SI 0 "address_operand" "p"))]
""
"pushal %a1")
I like the more and simplier patterns approach but I'm wondering what
the general recommendation is?
