functions need a comment.

ISTR it was suggested that ARM change to libgcc2.c__udivmoddi4 style?  In that
case we could avoid the target hook.

+      /* If target overrides expand_divmod_libfunc hook
+        then perform divmod by generating call to the target-specifc divmod
libfunc.  */
+      if (targetm.expand_divmod_libfunc != default_expand_divmod_libfunc)
+       return true;
+
+      /* Fall back to using libgcc2.c:__udivmoddi4.  */
+      return (mode == DImode && unsignedp);

I don't understand this - we know optab_libfunc returns non-NULL for 'mode'
but still restrict this to DImode && unsigned?  Also if
targetm.expand_divmod_libfunc
is not the default we expect the target to handle all modes?

That said - I expected the above piece to be simply a 'return true;' ;)

Usually we use some can_expand_XXX helper in optabs.c to query if the target
supports a specific operation (for example SImode divmod would use DImode
divmod by means of widening operands - for the unsigned case of course).

+  /* Disable the transform if either is a constant, since
division-by-constant
+     may have specialized expansion.  */
+  if (TREE_CONSTANT (op1) || TREE_CONSTANT (op2))
+    return false;

please use CONSTANT_CLASS_P (op1) || CONSTANT_CLASS_P (op2)

+  if (TYPE_OVERFLOW_TRAPS (type))
+    return false;

why's that?  Generally please first test cheap things (trapping, constant-ness)
before checking expensive stuff (target_supports_divmod_p).

+static bool
+convert_to_divmod (gassign *stmt)
+{
+  if (!divmod_candidate_p (stmt))
+    return false;
+
+  tree op1 = gimple_assign_rhs1 (stmt);
+  tree op2 = gimple_assign_rhs2 (stmt);
+
+  vec<gimple *> stmts = vNULL;

use an auto_vec <gimple *> - you currently leak it in at least one place.

+      if (maybe_clean_or_replace_eh_stmt (use_stmt, use_stmt))
+       cfg_changed = true;

note that this suggests you should check whether any of the stmts may throw
internally as you don't update / transfer EH info correctly.  So for 'stmt' and
all 'use_stmt' check stmt_can_throw_internal and if so do not add it to
the list of stmts to modify.

Btw, I think you should not add 'stmt' immediately but when iterating over
all uses also gather uses in TRUNC_MOD_EXPR.

Otherwise looks ok.

Thanks,
Richard.
