Hi all,
I'm trying to add some optimizations to the m68k.md file. I'm just starting
out, and I've read the gcc docs backwards and forwards, and it's beginning to
make just a little sense.
Hopefully this question belongs on this mailing list?
Anyway, one thing I'm trying, just to see if it works, is to find anything
which multiples an HI register by 40 and replace it with two shifts and an
add. For example:
muls.w #40,%d0
becomes
move.w %d0,%d1
asl.w #2,%d0 /* 4x */
add.w %d1,%d0 /* 5x */
asl.w #3,%d0 /* 40x */
Would the correct way to do this in the .md file be the included patch? It
*seems* to work, but I'd like to know if I'm using clobber/match_scratch
properly, and if my define_insn really belongs here.
Thanks!
