> a) To which register is the value of n copied? if a5 is the register > what is 13 and [28] All of those numbers refer to the same register - 13 is the number of the register; a5 is the name of the register (if it is an hard register); [28] is the number of the old pseudo register. (please look at ORIGINAL_REGNO in rtl.h for more info)
> b) what is [flags 0x2] <var_decl 0x40227160 n> [flags 0x2] are symbol_ref flags and var_decl is the tree decl associated with this symbol.

As above; [orig:29 n ] [29] are the numbers of the old pseudo register. > b) what does this mean [2 n+0 S4 A32] in the above expression? [2 n+0 S4 A32] contains information on the memory expression - 2 is the alias set (MEM_ALIAS_SET);n is the base memory expression and 0 is it's offset ;S4 is the size in bytes of the memory expression (MEM_SIZE) and A32 is the alignment in bits (MEM_ALIGN).
