--- Comment #6 from Vineet Gupta <vineetg at gcc dot gnu.org> --- I have debugged this by single stepped in qemu when the test fails (first loop for offset 0, iteration 8) The last VSETVLI is this one, 0x10a3e 0d107057 vsetvli zero,zero,e32,m2,ta,ma 0x10a42 j 0x10666 We eventually hit a VMV.v.x. which creates invalid pattern due to e32. (gdb) info reg vtype vtype 0xd1 209 # SEW = 010’b / e32, LMUL = 001’b / m2 (gdb) info reg vl vl 0x8 8 (gdb) info reg a0 a0 0x41 65 vmv.v.x v2,a0 (gdb) info reg v2 v2 {q = {0x41000000410000004100000041} (gdb) info reg v3 v2 {q = {0x41000000410000004100000041}
