My mistake. Yes you are right. The fsplit-ivs-in-unroller is a transformation in RTL unroller. IVO on gimple doesn't take unrolling into consideration and assume to assign single register for IV candidates. My thinking is that Splitting IVs at RTL with the unroller removes the long dependent chains and thus makes the overlapping iterations and better Register allocators and there is a chance of movement of independent code that got exposes with split-ivs-in-unroller. You have mentioned that splitting of IV candidate reults in bad code. I could see only the positive end of this optimizations. Could you please elaborate on the negative end of the fsplit-ivs-in-unroller optimizations as you have mentioned that it results In bad code in some cases.
