The SH port has a pass which looks for suitable places to put its
constant table.
Ideally it finds a barrier (within a certain range from the first use of
the pool) and shoves the constant pool after that barrier.
Otherwise it'll create jump/barrier/<target> style sequence and insert
the constant pool after the barrier, but before the jump target.
That's all fine and good. Except that it can confuse the CFI machinery.
The sequence makes it look like there's live code after the sibling
call. It's now so clear why this bug came and went semi-randomly across
the various sh targets -- it depends on the sibling call being the insn
which causes the main loop in find_barrier to exit. So one more or one
less insn, or an insn changing alternative (and thus size) and the bug
goes latent.
Anyway fixing this is pretty simple. We can just insert the table after
the sibling call (taking care not to separate the call from its
NOTE_INSN_CALL_ARG_LOCATION note).
I went back and verified each of the SH bugs where we had testcases for
this problem were fixed by this patch. I also verified that the sh-elf
libgcc/newlib targets built after this patch.
Given the sensitivity to precisely what insn causes the loop to exit, I
haven't bothered to add a test to the testsuite.
This would likely be a reasonable backport candidate to gcc-7 if SH
folks are interested.
Installed onto the trunk,
Jeff
ps. No, I wasn't really looking to fix the SH stuff. I'm really
chasing that MIPS regression. Fixing this was just collateral damage.
