Dear All,
The GCC source reference 4.8.1 will synthesized some of the double
word operations(SI mode) like add /sub in the below case from the word
size (HI) patterns,
(code snippet)
expand_binop_directly function in the optabs.c.
/* These can be done a word at a time by propagating carries. */
1949 if ((binoptab == add_optab || binoptab == sub_optab)
1950 && mclass == MODE_INT
1951 && GET_MODE_SIZE (mode) >= 2 * UNITS_PER_WORD
1952 && optab_handler (binoptab, word_mode) != CODE_FOR_nothing)
(code snippet)
Current private target port will hash the above conditions ,hence
compiler will synthesizes the double word operation w.r.t word
operations .
We would like prevent this optimisations ,The reason for the same is
we do have the some optimised intrinsic functions ,which is coded in
assemble and we want compiler to emit the intrinsic call to these
routines instead of synthesizes the double word operations.
Anyone in the group can shed some lights here will be appreciated .
Thank you
