Hi,
I had submitted a patch for a similar case involving __builtin_memcpy:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2016-11/msg02485.html
IIUC, there was following issue:
Marking it as tailcall at GIMPLE won't necessarily make it a tail-call during
RTL tail-call emission. To address this issue, the patch created artificial lhs
and returned that instead for the tail-call to be in more "natural" form:
_memcpy(dest, src, n)
return dest
to
_1 = memcpy(dest, src, n)
return _1
And I think later it was concluded that this was better handled in FRE/PRE, for
which you had posted a patch:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2016-12/msg00424.html
Thanks,
Prathamesh
