--- Comment #1 from rsandifo at gcc dot gnu.org <rsandifo at gcc dot gnu.org> --- I can't reproduce this locally. Do I need any special configure flags apart from -mcpu=power8? It'd be interesting to see the insn that split_insn is splitting. Hopefully that should give an idea which define_split is being used.
