While implementing something like mips16 as a __attribute__((thumb)) for the
ARM port I discovered that the following testcase stripped down from a testcase
in the gcc testsuite causes a segmentation fault in the compiler for the MIPS
port as well.
static double __attribute__((mips16)) time_giop_encode (unsigned long);
int
main(int ac, char *av[])
{
time_giop_encode (0);
}
static
double __attribute__ ((mips16))
time_giop_encode (unsigned long l)
{
giop_encode_ulong (l);
}
A run through a valgrind showed that there was a write to an invalid address -

The segfault is because reg_rtx_no is 0 and rtx_reg_no are uninitialized. It
looks like the infrastructure of target_reinit is broken because these are not
reinitialized correctly after inlining does its bit with setting and resetting
this . init_function_start from tree_rest_of_compilation initializes these but
the inlining bits call set_cfun and do a target_reinit which sets all these
values to zero. expand_function_start gets called later and by this time since
regno_reg_rtx is set to 0 you have gen_reg_rtx returning a hard register.
