Re: Bitfields problem
Interestingly enough, if I do this instead:
typedef struct sTest {
int a:12;
int b:20;
int c:7;
int d:15;
}STest;
int64_t bar2 (STest *a)
{
int64_t res = a->b;
return res;
}
I get at the expand pass :
(insn 6 5 7 3 struct3.c:27 (set (reg:SI 75)
(mem/s:SI (reg/v/f:DI 73 [ a ]) [0 S4 A32])) -1 (nil)) ->
Actually get the data
(insn 7 6 8 3 struct3.c:27 (set (reg:DI 77)
(zero_extract:DI (subreg:DI (reg:SI 75) 0)
(const_int 20 [0x14])
(const_int 12 [0xc]))) -1 (nil)) -> Extract the
bits we want but this is zero_extracted
(insn 8 7 9 3 struct3.c:27 (set (reg:DI 78)
(ashift:DI (reg:DI 77)
(const_int 43 [0x2b]))) -1 (nil))
(insn 9 8 10 3 struct3.c:27 (set (subreg:DI (reg:SI 76) 0)
(ashiftrt:DI (reg:DI 78)
(const_int 43 [0x2b]))) -1 (nil)) -> These two
instructions actually sign extend it
(insn 10 9 11 3 struct3.c:27 (set (reg:DI 79)
(ashift:DI (reg:SI 76)
(const_int 32 [0x20]))) -1 (nil))
(insn 11 10 12 3 struct3.c:27 (set (reg:DI 74)
(ashiftrt:DI (reg:DI 79)
(const_int 32 [0x20]))) -1 (expr_list:REG_EQUAL
(sign_extend:DI (reg:SI 76))
(nil))) -> Because it's seen as a SI, these last two sign
extend it again...
And I get later on in the passes (the instructions are removed by the
combine pass):
(insn 6 3 7 2 struct3.c:27 (set (reg:SI 75)
(mem/s:SI (reg:DI 8 r8 [ a ]) [0 S4 A32])) 74
{movsi_internal2} (expr_list:REG_DEAD (reg:DI 8 r8 [ a ])
(nil)))
(note 7 6 8 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED)
(note 8 7 9 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED)
(note 9 8 10 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED)
(note 10 9 11 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED)
(note 11 10 16 2 NOTE_INSN_DELETED)
(insn 16 11 22 2 struct3.c:30 (set (reg/i:DI 6 r6)
(zero_extract:DI (subreg:DI (reg:SI 75) 0)
(const_int 20 [0x14])
(const_int 12 [0xc]))) 63 {extzvdi} (expr_list:REG_DEAD (reg:SI 75)
(nil)))
So now I have two issues that I can't seem to figure out :
- Why can combine remove these 4 instructions ?
- Why do I have such a difference between a local variable that is not
a pointer, a pointer and a global variable ?
I remember having a different behavior if the variable was a global
variable or if it was a parameter. It seems that this is the case also
for here. However, this is worse, since it transforms my signed
extract into a simple zero_extract.
Thanks for your help,
Jc
