From: "carrot at google dot com" <gcc-bugzilla@gcc.gnu.org> To: gcc-bugs@gcc.gnu.org Subject: [Bug rtl-optimization/40327] New: Use less instructions to add some constants to register Date: Wed, 03 Jun 2009 07:39:00 -0000 [thread overview] Message-ID: <bug-40327-17659@http.gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/> (raw) Compiling this simple function in thumb mode: int add_const(int x) { return x+400; } I got: mov r1, #200 lsl r3, r1, #1 add r0, r0, r3 A better code sequence should be: add r0, r0, 200 add r0, r0, 200 In order to apply this optimization, the constant should be less than 2 times of the largest immediate value in the target ISA. So this optimization should also useful to other architecture with limited immediate operand range. It can also be applied to sub instruction. -- Summary: Use less instructions to add some constants to register Product: gcc Version: 4.5.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: rtl-optimization AssignedTo: unassigned at gcc dot gnu dot org ReportedBy: carrot at google dot com GCC build triplet: i686-linux GCC host triplet: i686-linux GCC target triplet: arm-eabi http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40327
