Re: Fix for 56175


Richard,

Sorry for my previous message - I did not undersatnd it properly.

Anyway I proposed another fix that avoid  (type) x & c --> (type) (x &
(type-x) c) transformation if x has short type:

+++ gcc/tree-ssa-forwprop.c     (working copy)
@@ -1789,8 +1789,11 @@
   defcodefor_name (arg1, &def1_code, &def1_arg1, &def1_arg2);
   defcodefor_name (arg2, &def2_code, &def2_arg1, &def2_arg2);

-  /* Try to fold (type) X op CST -> (type) (X op ((type-x) CST)).  */
+  /* Try to fold (type) X op CST -> (type) (X op ((type-x) CST)).
+     Do that only if X has not short type.  */
   if (TREE_CODE (arg2) == INTEGER_CST
+      && (TYPE_PRECISION (TREE_TYPE (arg1))
+          >= TYPE_PRECISION (integer_type_node))
       && CONVERT_EXPR_CODE_P (def1_code)
       && INTEGRAL_TYPE_P (TREE_TYPE (def1_arg1))
       && int_fits_type_p (arg2, TREE_TYPE (def1_arg1)))

Does this fix look suitable?

Yuri.
