[Bug tree-optimization/28920] New: vectorizer produces vector long long on powerpc-linux-gnu (and vector long on powerpc64)

[pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org]

Take the following testcase:
extern char lanip[3][40];
typedef struct
{
  char *t[4];
}tx_typ;
int set_names (void)
{
  static tx_typ tt1;
  int ln;
  for (ln = 0; ln < 4; ln++)
      tt1.t[ln] = lanip[1];
}

-----
With -O2 -ftree-vectorize -maltivec, we produce a vector long long and we get
worse code than just doing the scalar code as VMX does not have a vector long
long mode.  We really should be asking the target if we support a vector mode.
I noticed this while looking into PR 28915.

Actually the RTL issue was fixed up by subreg2 pass.
So closing as fixed.
