The xpassing change in generated code was as follows, at r14-9788-gb7bd2ec73d66f7 (where I locally applied a revert to verify that this suspect was the cause). That was so much of an improvement that I had to share it! Worth the testsuite churn anyway. :)
Segher, if you end up reverting r14-9692-g839bc42772ba7a (as unfortunately seems not unlikely), then please also revert this commit: r14-9799-g4c8b3600c4856f7915281ae3ff4d97271c83a540. --- pr93372-2.s.pre 2024-04-05 01:49:47.985685902 +0200 +++ pr93372-2.s.post 2024-04-05 01:42:02.296489730 +0200 @@ -5,12 +5,9 @@ .global _f .type _f, @function _f: - move.d $r10,$r9 - sub.d $r11,$r9 - cmp.d $r11,$r10 - seq $r10 - move.d $r10,[$r12] - cmpq 0,$r9 + sub.d $r11,$r10 + seq $r9 + move.d $r9,[$r12] ret sge $r10 -- >8 -- After r14-9692-g839bc42772ba7a, a sequence that actually looks optimal is now emitted, observed at r14-9788-gb7bd2ec73d66f7. This caused an XPASS for this test. While adjusting the test, better also guard it against regressions by checking that there are no redundant move insns. That's the only test that's improved to the point of affecting test-patterns. E.g. pr93372-5.c (which references pr93372-2.c) is also improved, though it retains a redundant compare insn. (PR 93372 was about regressions from the cc0 representation; not further improvement like here, thus it's not tagged. Though, I did not double-check whether this actually *was* a regression from cc0.) * gcc.target/cris/pr93372-2.c: Tweak scan-assembler checks to cover recent combine improvement. --- gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/cris/pr93372-2.c | 15 ++++++++------- 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) diff --git a/gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/cris/pr93372-2.c b/gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/cris/pr93372-2.c index 912069c018d5..2ef6471a990b 100644 --- a/gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/cris/pr93372-2.c +++ b/gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/cris/pr93372-2.c @@ -1,19 +1,20 @@ /* Check that eliminable compare-instructions are eliminated. */ /* { dg-do compile } */ /* { dg-options "-O2" } */ -/* { dg-final { scan-assembler-not "\tcmp|\ttest" { xfail *-*-* } } } */ -/* { dg-final { scan-assembler-not "\tnot" { xfail cc0 } } } */ -/* { dg-final { scan-assembler-not "\tlsr" { xfail cc0 } } } */ +/* { dg-final { scan-assembler-not "\tcmp|\ttest" } } */ +/* { dg-final { scan-assembler-not "\tnot" } } */ +/* { dg-final { scan-assembler-not "\tlsr" } } */ +/* We should get just one move, storing the result into *d. */ +/* { dg-final { scan-assembler-times "\tmove" 1 } } */ int f(int a, int b, int *d) { int c = a - b; - /* Whoops!
