Description Bernd Schmidt 2010-08-06 22:18:56 UTC
We have RROTATE_EXPR and LROTATE_EXPR, but the patterns are not reliably detected at the tree level.  I'm attaching a testcase reduced from the Linux kernel, which has at least one sequence that can be rewritten using a rolw instruction:

	movzwl	%cx, %edx
	movzwl	%ax, %eax
	shrw	$8, %cx
	movl	%edx, -44(%ebp)
	sall	$8, %edx
	movw	%cx, -50(%ebp)
	orw	%dx, -50(%ebp)

Other opportunities exist.  At the most basic level, a function like

unsigned short rol8 (unsigned short word, unsigned int shift)
{
  return (word << 8) | (word >> 8);
}

should be transformed at the tree level by recognizing the rotate.

Comment 2 Steven Bosscher 2010-08-06 23:02:11 UTC
pathetic... :)
Comment 3 Steven Bosscher 2010-08-06 23:17:38 UTC
Related to PR17886, where it says that: "gcc can detect the (x << y)|(x >> (bitwidth-y)) idiom for rotate and convert it into the machine rotate instruction. But it only works when y is a constant and is not long long." But apparently even this case is not detected anymore.
Comment 4 Richard Biener 2010-08-06 23:41:39 UTC
Fold used to detect these.  Maybe we're now having different conversions inbetween.

Another testcase

Here is another test case. Here on this x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu system, gcc recognizes the rotate for 32 and 64 bits, and fails for 16 and 8 bits. Constants or not doesn't seem to make a difference.

I should ad that I tested with "gcc-4.4.real (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) 4.4.3".
Comment 7 Nick Kossifidis 2012-12-01 01:37:35 UTC
In my case it does detect an even more complex scenario but it doesn't detect it when using integer typedefs from <sys/types.h>, more specifically:

unsigned long rotate_left(unsigned long a, unsigned int shift)
{
        return a << shift | a >> (sizeof(a) * 8 - shift);
}

results

080483d4 <rotate_left>:
 80483d4:	55                   	push   %ebp
 80483d5:	89 e5                	mov    %esp,%ebp
 80483d7:	53                   	push   %ebx
 80483d8:	8b 45 0c             	mov    0xc(%ebp),%eax
 80483db:	8b 55 08             	mov    0x8(%ebp),%edx
 80483de:	89 d3                	mov    %edx,%ebx

 80483e4:	89 d8                	mov    %ebx,%eax
 80483e6:	5b                   	pop    %ebx

 80483e8:	c3                   	ret  

but

u_int64_t rotate_left(u_int64_t a, u_int32_t shift)
{
        return a << shift | a >> (sizeof(a) * 8 - shift);

 8048433:	c3                   	ret  

Here are the typedefs from <sys/types.h>:

typedef unsigned int u_int32_t __attribute__ ((__mode__ (__SI__)));
typedef unsigned int u_int64_t __attribute__ ((__mode__ (__DI__)));

I also tried with u_int32_t/u_int16_t and other combinations but I get the same results.

We have a regression in C++ in 4.8 there. Comparing -O3 -fdump-tree-optimized in gcc-4.7, g++-4.7 and gcc-4.8:

  D.1708_3 = a_1(D) r<< shift_2(D);

and in g++-4.8:

  shift.0_2 = (int) shift_1(D);
  _4 = a_3(D) << shift.0_2;
  _5 = 64 - shift_1(D);
  _6 = (int) _5;
  _7 = a_3(D) >> _6;
  _8 = _7 | _4;

The patches for bug 57157 may fix this bug also.
Comment 10 Jakub Jelinek 2013-05-09 14:51:19 UTC
They certainly mean to.

There is still PR62263, so not all cases are handled, but if all those mentioned in this PR are fixed, then it is enough to keep the other one open.
