Re: reload question

Hi,
My port supports hardware loops generated by the following (do_end) pattern:

(set (pc) (if_then_else (ne (match_operand:HI 0 "general_register_operand" "d")
                            (const_int 0))
                        (label_ref (match_operand 1 "" ""))
                        (pc)))
      (set  (match_operand:HI 2 "general_register_operand" "=0")
          (plus:HI (match_operand:HI 3 "general_register_operand" "0")
                           (const_int -1)))
     (clobber (match_operand:BI 4 "predicate_register_operand" "=j"))


When Im compiling a loop with high register pressure the register allocator does not allocate a register for the loop counter (i.e., operand 0) as it has a long life range. Thus operand 0 has to be reloaded but then I get a failure in the reload:


error: unable to generate reloads for:

  ->  183)
lib5.c:105:1: internal compiler error: in find_reloads, at reload.c:3821

Can anybody give me a hint?
I am aware of the following msg:
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2001-09/msg00942.html
but still dont know how to make reload do the work.
insns which branch are not allowed to have output reloads. You must support any kind of register as well as memory operands in your insn for the loop counter.
