Bug ID: 104914 Summary: [MIPS] wrong comparison with scrabbled int value Product: gcc Version: 12.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: target Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: mmyangfl at gmail dot com Target Milestone: --- GCC 12.0 (current git master, 80fcc4b) and 11 generates wrong instructions for this code. (older version not tested) $ mips64el-img-elf-gcc -mabi=64 -S -O1 -o - ~/a.c #include <stdio.h> void test(const unsigned char *buf) { int val; ((unsigned char*)&val)[0] = *buf++; ((unsigned char*)&val)[1] = *buf++; ((unsigned char*)&val)[2] = *buf++; ((unsigned char*)&val)[3] = *buf++; if(val > 0) puts("a"); else fputs("b", stderr); } int main() { test("\xff\xff\xff\xff"); } // => "a" Generated asm code in question: test: .frame $sp,16,$31 # vars= 0, regs= 1/0, args= 0, gp= 0 .mask 0x80000000,-8 .fmask 0x00000000,0 .set noreorder .set nomacro daddiu $sp,$sp,-16 sd $31,8($sp) lbu $3,0($4) move $2,$0 dins $2,$3,0,8 lbu $3,1($4) dins $2,$3,8,8 lbu $3,2($4) dins $2,$3,16,8 lbu $3,3($4) dins $2,$3,24,8 blezc $2,.L2 // signed extending $2 missing! lui $4,%highest(.LC0) lui $2,%hi(.LC0) daddiu $4,$4,%higher(.LC0) daddiu $2,$2,%lo(.LC0) dsll $4,$4,32 daddu $4,$4,$2 balc puts ld $31,8($sp) .L5: daddiu $sp,$sp,16 jrc $31 .L2: ld $2,%gp_rel(_impure_ptr)($28) ld $5,24($2) li $4,98 # 0x62 balc fputc b .L5 ld $31,8($sp) Below are my attempts to fix this bug: -fdump-final-insns gives the following statement: (jump_insn # 0 0 (set (pc) (if_then_else (le (reg:SI 2 $2 [orig:201 val ] [201]) (const_int 0 [0])) (label_ref #) (pc))) "/home/ding/a.c":8:5# {*branch_ordersi} (expr_list:REG_DEAD (reg:SI 2 $2 [orig:201 val ] [201]) (int_list:REG_BR_PROB 440234148 (nil))) -> 2) After manually `icode != CODE_FOR_cbranchsi4` in gcc/gcc/optabs.cc:4501, combine pass still combines them back, but the machine description simply define "cbranch<mode>4" for all cbranch family. I wonder since MIPS64 can't really do comparsion over partial register, is this RTL valid?
