Hi, Is it possible for a component_ref node to have its arg 0 to be NULL ? I would think not because from tree.def I gather that arg 0 tells me what structures field this component_ref refers to. For convenience, I have pasted here what tree.def tells me about a component_ref
/* Value is structure or union component. Operand 0 is the structure or union (an expression). Operand 1 is the field (a node of type FIELD_DECL). Operand 2, if present, is the value of DECL_FIELD_OFFSET, measured in units of DECL_OFFSET_ALIGN / BITS_PER_UNIT. */ DEFTREECODE (COMPONENT_REF, "component_ref", tcc_reference, 3) I am working on a target hook wherein I use the MEM_EXPR of a mem rtx. It returns the following component_ref node <component_ref 0x2b3599d0ca00 type <integer_type 0x2b35998f1e40 int32 sizes-gimplified public SI size <integer_cst 0x2b359975a840 constant 32> unit size <integer_cst 0x2b359975a4b0 constant 4> align 32 symtab 0 alias set -1 canonical type 0x2b359976d6c0 precision 32 min <integer_cst 0x2b359975a8a0 -2147483648> max \ <integer_cst 0x2b359975a8d0 2147483647> pointer_to_this <pointer_type 0x2b3599b1c300>> arg 1 <field_decl 0x2b3599b18140 dcfMemL1 type <integer_type 0x2b35998f1e40 int32> used nonlocal decl_3 SI file ../src/synth_core/QDSP6/svrreg.h line 134 col 11 size <integer_cst 0x2b359975a840 32> unit siz\ e <integer_cst 0x2b359975a4b0 4> align 32 offset_align 64 offset <integer_cst 0x2b3599b04b10 constant 152> bit offset <integer_cst 0x2b359975a840 32> context <record_type 0x2b3599b1\ 2840 dlsSvrReg> chain <field_decl 0x2b3599b181e0 dcfMemL2 type <integer_type 0x2b35998f1e40 int32> used nonlocal decl_3 SI file ../src/synth_core/QDSP6/svrreg.h line 135 col 11 size <integer_cst 0x2b359975a840 32> unit\ size <integer_cst 0x2b359975a4b0 4> align 32 offset_align 64 offset <integer_cst 0x2b3599b04b70 constant 160> bit offset <integer_cst 0x2b359977e0c0 constant 0> context <record_type 0x2b3599b12840 dlsSvrReg> chain <field_decl 0x2\ b3599b18280 dcfMemR1>>>> Following this if I do exp = TREE_OPERAND ( comp_ref_node, 0); I get "exp" as NULL ? Is this possible ? or Is there something I am doing wrong ? or There is something fishy here with the tree node that MEM_EXPR is giving me ? Thanks, Pranav
