------- Comment #3 from pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-10-18 00:09 ------- and yes eax/reg 68 (or n) is dead after the compare in combine: (insn 37 36 39 3 (parallel [ (set (reg/v:SI 68 [ n ]) (minus:SI (reg:SI 71) (reg/v:SI 66 [ med ]))) (clobber (reg:CC 17 flags)) ]) 172 {*subsi_1} (insn_list:REG_DEP_TRUE 36 (nil)) (expr_list:REG_DEAD (reg:SI 71) (expr_list:REG_UNUSED (reg:CC 17 flags) (nil))))
(insn 39 37 40 3 (set (reg:CC 17 flags) (compare:CC (reg/v:SI 68 [ n ]) (const_int 0 [0x0]))) 2 {*cmpsi_1_insn} (insn_list:REG_DEP_TRUE 37 (nil)) (expr_list:REG_DEAD (reg/v:SI 68 [ n ]) (nil))) Note the REG_DEAD, so what RTH said is wrong. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24418
