It's difficult to answer that question in a simple way.  Assuming you
are using C, the C frontend will create a VAR_DECL for x.  If you assign
a value to that variable, it will create a MODIFY_EXPR.  The MODIFY_EXPR
will then be converted to a GIMPLE_ASSIGN statement in GIMPLE.  This
will then eventually be converted to an RTL SET.  So the rtx code is
SET.  If this is a local variable which is stored in memory rather than
in a register, the stack space will be allocated by assign_stack_local.
