Hardcoding particular modes like this in the target-independent parts of the compiler is fundamentally ill-conceived. Right now it hardcodes the (SImode, DImode) pair. You're adding hardcoding of (QImode, SImode) as well. But really it should consider all pairs of (integer mode, wider integer mode), with the machine description (or target hooks) determining which pairs are relevant on a particular target. Changing it not to hardcode particular modes would be better than adding a second pair. -- Joseph S. Myers jos...@codesourcery.com
