An interesting regression results as a side effect of loop header copying (this
occurs even in vanilla O2). If I modify my original test case to
struct struct_t {
int* data;
};
void testAddr (struct struct_t* sp, int

Confirmed. Introducing loop header copy for Os, resolves the problem.
On our port, this not only helps move the invariant load outside the loop, but
also correctly uses an auto-increment address mode via the AutoInc patc

Well, the issue is that even LIM doesn't move the load because loop header
copying is not run at -Os which usually makes loop analysis hard.
At -O2 -fno-tree-pre it works, but at -Os it doesn't.
We should be better

Hmm, this isn't my day. Of course you're right, Andrew.
So the issue is that a loop invariant load is not hoisted at -Os, because it
does not improve size.
FWIW several patches have been proposed to change this, se

This is not an aliasing issue rather PRE not running at -Os which is expected.
