This simple patch avoids the ICE described in the PR: internal compiler error: in simd_valid_immediate, at config/arm/arm.cc:12866
with an early exit from simd_valid_immediate if we are trying to handle a vector of booleans and MVE is not enabled. We still get an ICE when compiling the existing gcc.dg/rtl/arm/mve-vxbi.c without -march=armv8.1-m.main+mve: error: unrecognizable insn: (insn 7 5 8 2 (set (reg:V4BI 114) (const_vector:V4BI [ (const_int 1 [0x1]) (const_int 0 [0]) repeated x2 (const_int 1 [0x1]) ])) -1 (nil)) during RTL pass: ira but there's little we can do since the testcase explicitly creates vectors of booleans which do need MVE. That is the reason why I do not add a testcase. 2022-04-19 Christophe Lyon <christophe.l...@arm.com> PR target/104662 * config/arm/arm.cc (simd_valid_immediate): Exit when input is a vector of booleans and MVE is not enabled. --- gcc/config/arm/arm.cc | 3 +++ 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+) diff --git a/gcc/config/arm/arm.cc b/gcc/config/arm/arm.cc index 14e2fdfeafa..69a18c2f157 100644 --- a/gcc/config/arm/arm.cc +++ b/gcc/config/arm/arm.cc @@ -12849,6 +12849,9 @@ simd_valid_immediate (rtx op, machine_mode mode, int inverse, || n_elts * innersize != 16)) return -1; + if (!TARGET_HAVE_MVE && GET_MODE_CLASS (mode) == MODE_VECTOR_BOOL) + return -1; + /* Vectors of float constants. */ if (GET_MODE_CLASS (mode) == MODE_VECTOR_FLOAT) { -- 2.25.1
