, maybe PHI-OPT should recognize this pattern and reject the transformation??? Your thoughts/comments/suggestions, please? Ciao! Steven P.S. Unfortunately I haven't been able to produce a test case that shows the problem without my switch conversion pass.

Deprecate 32-bits HP-PA for GCC 4.8?

2012-05-07 Thread Steven Bosscher
ot; patterns in pa.md and pa.c, and most of the cleanups to remove support for SOM objects. The resulting PA port would support HP-UX11 on 64bits PA-RISC 2.0 (i.e. HP-PA8xxx). It's hard enough to maintain HP-UX11 support on HP-PA. With this cleanup, the job would become a bit simpler. Thoughts/comments? Ciao! Steven

or whether this patch is OK or not? I also have no problems leaving the switch expanding code in stmt.c, and just adding new code for switch lowering as a GIMPLE pass. That way (of least resistance) SJLJ exception dispatches can continue to be expanded as decision trees. Just tell me what you want. Ciao! Steven

2012-05-29 Thread Steven Bosscher
How can this work? As far as grep understands, only link_cc0_insns creates REG_CC_SETTER notes, but that function is only called from reorg.c (and even then, only if it makes a transformation). So NOTE will always be NULL. Are REG_CC_SETTER/REG_CC_USER notes supposed to exist before dbr_sched? Ci
