inspect bug.s.  for a while gcc emits correct instructions:

...
        mov     r2, #29
        mov     r3, #0
        strd    r2, [r0, #-240]!
        bl      bar
        add     r0, sp, #360
        mov     r2, #30
        mov     r3, #0
        strd    r2, [r0, #-248]!
        bl      bar

however when reaching offset -256, it emits LDRs instead of STRs:

        add     r0, sp, #360
        mov     r2, #31
        mov     r3, #0
        ldr     r2, [r0, #-256]!
        ldr     r3, [r0, #4]
        bl      bar

the issue seems to be a typo in gcc/config/arm/arm.c:output_move_double() introduced by commit [1].  i've tried to fix by applying the following:

Comment 1 Ramana Radhakrishnan 2010-07-27 12:47:57 UTC
Patches should be submitted to gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.org after having been regression tested. Please also submit a testcase and appropriate Changelog entries as documented here -  http://gcc.gnu.org/contribute.html#patches


Having said that however, this patch looks alright to me from the naked eye and code inspection.

simplified testcase

Confirmed with gcc 4.5.0 here. Also tried but could not reproduce the problem with gcc 4.4 (it just does not seem to be able to emit ldrd/strd instructions with pre/post increment).

Update this test case a little bit, with test commands.
Post patch here http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2010-08/msg00001.html

Comment 7 Ramana Radhakrishnan 2010-08-27 12:14:09 UTC
can this be backported to the 4.5 branch please ? 
Comment 8 Richard Biener 2010-12-16 13:03:16 UTC
GCC 4.5.2 is being released, adjusting target milestone.
Comment 9 Siarhei Siamashka 2010-12-18 15:43:39 UTC
Can this bug get a "[4.5 regression]" header please?

Even though the bug existed in gcc sources since 2007 (see the link in comment 1), the reported wrong-code problem itself was apparently latent until gcc 4.5, and is not reproducible with older gcc versions.

> Is that first hunk intentional?
 
No.  It is from another PR backport, so it is redundant here.  Submit a clean patch again http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2010-12/msg01873.html
Comment 14 Andrew Pinski 2012-01-12 20:34:14 UTC
Fixed in 4.6.0.
