Hi all, In the testcase here we were generating a umov + sxth to move a half-word value from SIMD to GP regs with sign-extension. We can use a single smov instruction for it instead but the sign-extend pattern was missing the right alternative. The *zero_extend<SHORT:mode><GPI:mode>2_aarch64 pattern for zero-extension already has the right alternative for the analogous umov instruction, so this mirrors that pattern.
Bootstrapped and tested on aarch64-none-linux-gnu. The test gcc.target/aarch64/sve/clastb_4.c is adjusted to scan for the clastb h0, p0, h0, z0.h form instead of the clastb w0, p0, w0, z0.h form. This is an improvement as the W forms of the clast instructions are more expensive. Pushing to trunk. Thanks, Kyrill gcc/ChangeLog: * config/aarch64/aarch64.md (*extend<SHORT:mode><GPI:mode>2_aarch64): Add "r,w" alternative. gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gcc.target/aarch64/smov_1.c: New test. * gcc.target/aarch64/sve/clastb_4.c: Adjust clast scan-assembler.
