Richard Biener <rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Last reconfirmed| |2022-06-14 Ever confirmed|0 |1 Status|UNCONFIRMED |NEW --- Comment #1 from Richard Biener <rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org> --- memcmp is folded when it can be turned into two loads and a comparison - that doesn't work for non-power-of-two sizes. Fully constant folding the loads isn't attempted - in theory value-numbering could use partial def tracking to prune equal prefixes and fold on different known bytes but I think this is all hardly worth the trouble? Who will write such code anyway.
