Bug ID: 110722
Summary: FP is Saved/Restored around inline assembly
Product: gcc
Version: 14.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: target
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: palmer at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
I'm not sure if this is some ABI-related requirement that I've managed to
forget about, but it looks like we're saving/restoring FP around inline
assembly.
long fp_asm(long arg0)
{
asm volatile ("addi a0, a0, 1" : "+r"(arg0));
return arg0;
}
produces
fp_asm(long):
addi sp,sp,-16
sd s0,8(sp)
addi s0,sp,16
addi a0, a0, 1
ld s0,8(sp)
addi sp,sp,16

We've got a ton of inline assembly in Linux these days and defconfig has
`-fno-omit-frame-pointer`, so this probably manifests as a performance issue
for someone somewhere -- though Clement just ran into it because he was
curious, so I don't have anything concrete.
