------- Additional Comments From dberlin at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-02-11 21:09 ------- This is caused by generating a complex linear offset in the transformed loop, which the "back to gcc" converter doesn't handle ATM, since they were never generated before.
(I didn't completly minimize linear offset generation. If i did, you'd notice that this loop really goes from 5 to MAX (2, j) or something like that) Loop w step size = -1 linear offset: Linear expression: -i + j constant: 5 invariants: denominator: 1 lower bound: Linear expression: i - j constant: 0 invariants: denominator: 1 upper bound: Linear expression: i - j constant: -3 invariants: denominator: 1 Linear expression: i constant: -5 invariants: denominator: 1 -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19910
