Re: prepare_decl_rtl in tree-ssa-loop-ivopts.c doesn't work with (ADDR_EXPR (ARRAY_REF))?

Sorry for missing the message and late reply.

I think the addr_expr should be expanded in some cases, for example,
computing the base cost of iv candidate.
Considering below candidate:

candidate 22
  var_before ivtmp.27
  var_after ivtmp.27
  incremented before use 1
  type unsigned int
  base (unsigned int) ((long unsigned int *) &GasmanStatAlive + 4294967292)
  step 4
  base object (void *) &GasmanStatAlive
Candidate 22 is related to use 1
candidate 23
  var_before ivtmp.28
  var_after ivtmp.28
  incremented after use 1
  type unsigned int
  base (unsigned int) &GasmanStatAlive
  step 4
  base object (void *) &GasmanStatAlive
Candidate 23 is related to use 1

the cost of computing base_22 in loop preheader is more expensive than
base_23. It's not computed as an address, so expanding would be
necessary.

Is it true, or something missed?

Thanks again.
