[Bug target/50766] New: Binutils 2.22.51 rejects bmi2 pext operation with memory operands


http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50766

             Bug #: 50766
           Summary: Binutils 2.22.51 rejects bmi2 pext operation with
                    memory operands
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.7.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: target
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: lloyd@randombit.net


This program

#include <stdio.h>
#include <x86intrin.h>

int main()
{
  unsigned int x = 0x23593464;
  unsigned int y = 0xF9494302;
  unsigned int z = _pext_u32(x, y);

  printf("%08X %08X %08X\n", x, y, z);
}

when compiled with gcc 4.7 without optimizations, produces a call to pext that
looks like this:

        pext    %eax, -16(%rbp), %eax

which binutils 2.22.51.20111017 rejects with

Error: operand size mismatch for `pext'

With -O2, gcc places all operands in registers, and as will accept it.
