Richard thanks for the reply.

Load-store uses 32bits. Sign extension happens automatically. So i
have choosen INT_MODE (RI, 5) and copied movsi and renamed it to
movri. I have also specified that RImode need only one register.

I have defined extendsiri and cbranchri4 patterns. When i compile a
program like

unsigned long xh = 1;
int main ()
{
    unsigned long yh = 0xffffull;
    unsigned long z = xh * yh;

     if (z != yh)
       abort ();

    return 0;
}

I get the following ICE

internal compiler error: in immed_double_const, at emit-rtl.c:553

This happens from cse_insn () calls insert() -> gen_lowpart ->
gen_lowpart_common -> simplify_gen_subreg -> simplfy_immed_subreg.
simplify_immed_subreg is called with the parameters (outermode=RImode,
(const_int 65535), innermode=DImode, byte=0)

cse_insn is called for the following insn

(insn 10 9 11 3 bug7.c:14 (set (reg:RI 67)
        (const_int 65535 [0xffff])) 4 {movri} (nil))


How can i overcome this?
