Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: middle-end
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org

C source code:
int a1(int);

int a3(int);
int test1(int a)
{
if (a > 100) return a1(a);
else if (a < 100) return a2(a);
return a3(a);
}
-----------------------------------
Assembly output:
test1:
.LFB0:
.cfi_startproc
cmpl $100, %edi
jg .L5
jne .L6
movl $100, %edi # no need to do this, eax is equal $100 at this
point
jmp a3
.p2align 4,,10
.p2align 3
.L6:
jmp a2
.p2align 4,,10
.p2align 3
.L5:
jmp a1
.cfi_endproc
