I have a movmem pattern in my target that pays attention to the alignment argument.
GCC isn't passing in the expected alignment part of the time. I have this test case: extern int *i, *j; extern int iv[40], jv[40]; void f1(void) { __builtin_memcpy (i, j, 32); } void f2(void) { __builtin_memcpy (iv, jv, 32); } When the movmem pattern is called for f1, alignment is 1. In f2, it is 2 (int is 2 bytes in pdp11) as expected. The compiler clearly knows that int* points to aligned data, since it generates instructions that assume alignment (this is a strict-alignment target) when I dereference the pointer. But somehow it gets it wrong for block move. I also see this for the individual move operations that are generated for very short memcpy operations; if the count is 4, I get four move byte operations for f1, but two move word operations for f2. This seems like a bug. Am I missing something? paul
