[PATCH 7/9] ifcvt: Emit two cmov variants and choose the less expensive one.

Robin Dapp rdapp@linux.ibm.com
Fri Aug 2 15:10:00 GMT 2019


This patch duplicates the previous noce_emit_cmove logic.  First it
passes the canonical comparison emits the sequence and costs it.
Then, a second, separate sequence is created by passing the cc compare
we extracted before.  The costs of both sequences are compared and the
cheaper one is emitted.
