The problem isn't in lra, it is in reload. You want lra to use the three address instruction, but you then want reload to use the two address alternative. > Using constraint disparaging (?R) eradicates the errors, but of course > that causes the 'R' three address alternative to never be used. You want to disparage the three address alternative in reload, but not in lra. There is a special code for that, you can use ^ instead of ? to make that happen. That may or may not help though. There is also a hook TARGET_CLASS_LIKELY_SPILLED_P which might help. You should try defining this to return true for the 'R' class if it doesn't already. Jim
