Hi All,
I'd like to ask for permissions to backport of this patch to GCC 8?
Ok. Please bundle the testcase in the backport as well.
Thanks,

In arm_block_set_aligned_vect 8-bit constants are generated as

Tamar tested the patch (see PR); no problems were found. Is this
okay for trunk?
The patch is okay but please add the testcase from the PR to
gcc.dg/ or somewhere else generic (it's not arm-specific).
It only failed with very specific options, which aren't valid on
every ARM config either I think?
-O3 -mfpu=neon -mfloat-abi=hard -march=armv7-a
This is a fairly common Arm configuration that is tested by many
people by default, so you wouldn't need to add any arm-specific
directives. Just putting it in one of the generic C tests folders
would be enough.
Ah ok, so just dg-options -O3 will do?
yes, that should be enough.
Thanks,
Kyrill
(As before, I have no reasonable way to test this).
