i370 port

Well done!  That generated sensible code:

L     15,=V(PRINTF)
BALR  14,15
L     3,=F'32880'
AR    3,13
MVC   0(10,3),0(2)


I still have the other knock-on effects from when I did this though:

C:\devel\gcc\gcc\config\i370>cvs diff i370.h
Index: i370.h
===================================================================
RCS file: c:\cvsroot/gcc/gcc/config/i370/i370.h,v
retrieving revision 1.17
diff -r1.17 i370.h
599a600,602
> #define EXTRA_MEMORY_CONSTRAINT(C, STR) \
>   ((C) == 'S')
>

(like the 8 byte move from F'0').  I'll do my own investigation
of that and report that later.

BFN.  Paul.

Oops, there's clearly a bug here.  "in" at this point is the original
expression that has not yet been reloaded, so its second operand will
indeed be a constant, not a register.  However, reload has already
decided that this constant will end up being replaced by a register,
and that is what the "find_replacement" call is checking.

So at this point in the program, XEXP (in, 1) will be the constant,
but op1 will be the register it is going to be replaced with.

Unfortunately the test whether to swap looks at XEXP (in, 1) -- it
really needs to look at op1 instead.

Can you try changing the lines

      if (GET_CODE (XEXP (in, 1)) == REG
          && REGNO (out) == REGNO (XEXP (in, 1)))

to

      if (GET_CODE (op1) == REG
          && REGNO (out) == REGNO (op1))

instead?

Bye,
Ulrich
