Hi,
When I tried to decrease # of IV candidates, I removed code that adds IV candidates for use with constant offset stripped in use->base. This is kind of too aggressive and triggers PR69042. So here is a patch adding back the missing candidates. Honestly, this patch doesn't truly fix the issue, it just brings back the original behavior in IVOPT part (Which is still a right thing to do I think). The issue still depends on PIC_OFFSET register used on x86 target. As discussed in https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2016-02/msg00040.html. Furthermore, the real problem could be in register pressure modeling about PIC_OFFSET symbol in IVOPT.
On AArch64, overall spec2k number isn't changed, though 173.applu is regressed by ~4% because couple of loops' # of candidates now hits "--param iv-consider-all-candidates-bound=30". For spec2k6 data on AArch64, INT is not affected; FP overall is not changed, as for specific case: 459.GemsFDTD is regressed by 2%, 433.milc is improved by 2%. To address the regression, I will send another patch increasing the parameter bound.
Bootstrap&test on x86_64 and AArch64, is it OK? In the meantime, I will collect spec2k6 data on x86_64.
Thanks,
