--- Comment #2 from Jakub Jelinek <jakub at gcc dot gnu.org> --- Seems this goes wrong during combine. Before it is able to figure out that (p & 0xfffe) is identical to (p & 0xfffe) % 0xffff (correct), and so we get: (note 4 0 2 2 [bb 2] NOTE_INSN_BASIC_BLOCK) (insn 2 4 3 2 (set (reg/v:SI 91 [ p ]) (reg:SI 5 di [ p ])) "pr79388.c":8 82 {*movsi_internal} (expr_list:REG_DEAD (reg:SI 5 di [ p ]) (nil))) (note 3 2 6 2 NOTE_INSN_FUNCTION_BEG) (note 6 3 7 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED) (note 7 6 9 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED) (note 9 7 11 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED) (note 11 9 12 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED) (note 12 11 14 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED) (note 14 12 15 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED) (note 15 14 16 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED) (note 16 15 18 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED) (note 18 16 20 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED) (note 20 18 21 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED) (insn 21 20 22 2 (parallel [ (set (reg/v:SI 91 [ p ]) (and:SI (reg/v:SI 91 [ p ]) (const_int 65534 [0xfffe]))) (clobber (reg:CC 17 flags)) ]) "pr79388.c":11 389 {*andsi_1} (expr_list:REG_UNUSED (reg:CC 17 flags) (nil))) (insn 22 21 23 2 (set (mem/c:SI (symbol_ref:DI ("c") [flags 0x2] <var_decl 0x7ffff7ff5ea0 c>) [1 c+0 S4 A32]) (reg/v:SI 91 [ p ])) "pr79388.c":12 82 {*movsi_internal} (nil)) (insn 23 22 24 2 (set (reg:SI 103 [ a ]) (mem/c:SI (symbol_ref:DI ("a") [flags 0x2] <var_decl 0x7ffff7ff5e10 a>) [1 a+0 S4 A32])) "pr79388.c":13 82 {*movsi_internal} (nil)) (insn 24 23 29 2 (parallel [ (set (reg:SI 102) (plus:SI (reg/v:SI 91 [ p ]) (reg:SI 103 [ a ]))) (clobber (reg:CC 17 flags)) ]) "pr79388.c":13 215 {*addsi_1} (expr_list:REG_DEAD (reg:SI 103 [ a ]) (expr_list:REG_DEAD (reg/v:SI 91 [ p ]) (expr_list:REG_UNUSED (reg:CC 17 flags) (expr_list:REG_EQUAL (plus:SI (reg/v:SI 91 [ p ]) (mem/c:SI (symbol_ref:DI ("a") [flags 0x2] <var_decl 0x7ffff7ff5e10 a>) [1 a+0 S4 A32])) (nil)))))) (insn 29 24 30 2 (set (reg/i:SI 0 ax) (reg:SI 102)) "pr79388.c":14 82 {*movsi_internal} (expr_list:REG_DEAD (reg:SI 102) (nil))) (insn 30 29 0 2 (use (reg/i:SI 0 ax)) "pr79388.c":14 -1 (nil)) But then try_combine is called with i3 24 and i2 23 and for some reason turns that into a load from the mem alone (as if (reg:SI 91) is 0).
