            Bug ID: 107155
           Summary: ppc_intrinsics is missing
           Product: gcc
           Version: 12.2.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: target
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: vital.had at gmail dot com
                CC: iains at gcc dot gnu.org
  Target Milestone: ---
            Target: powerpc-apple-darwin

Some ports ask for intrinsics header, however GCC12 currently has only
`ppu_intrinsics.h` for Cell, no `ppc_intrinsics.h` is there.
`ppc_intrinsics.h` existed in earlier GCC and likely can (and should) be
implemented into the current GCC.

ppc_intrinsics.h never existed upstream. If it existed it was in Apple's port
but I don't think it was.

Really just a dup of bug 93177.

And yes it was an Apple extension:

--- Comment #3 from Iain Sandoe <iains at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
The discussion in the duplicate issue revolves around whether the header in the
sources was suitable (i.e. for something != cell).

The Apple header (which presumably does not have these contraints, since it was
deployed with Apple GCC-4.x) was committed to the Apple branch on the FSF
server.

my understanding of the rules (we have used this policy before) is that any
sources actually committed to an FSF server are considered to be contributed -
so that we could forward-port that header.

It's a question of finding some time to fish it out and adjust the install to
add it and test .. (I have other GCC items much higher on the TODO).
