gcc48-pr54073.patch
On x86_64-linux on SandyBridge CPU with -O3 -march=corei7-avx I've tracked it
down to the
http://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs?root=gcc&view=rev&rev=171341
change, in particular emit_conditional_move part of the changes.
Before the change emit_conditional_move would completely ignore the predicate
on the comparison operand (operands[1]), starting with r171341 it honors it.
And the movsicc's ordered_comparison_operator would give up on the UNLT
comparison in the MonteCarlo testcase, while ix86_expand_int_movcc expands it
just fine and at least on that loop it is beneficial to use
vucomisd %xmm0, %xmm1
cmovae %eax, %ebp
instead of:
.L4:
addl $1, %ebx
...
vucomisd %xmm0, %xmm2
jb .L4
The attached proof of concept patch attempts to just restore the 4.6 and
earlier behavior by allowing in all comparisons. Of course perhaps it might be
possible it needs better tuning than that, I meant it just as a start for
discussions.
