The only change in v2 vs v3 is testsuite adjustments for the updated sequences and fixing the name of the second pattern. -- So this patch fixes a minor code generation inefficiency that (IIRC) the RAU team discovered a while ago in spec. If we want the inverted value of a single bit we can use bext to extract the bit, then seq to invert the value (if viewed as a 0/1 truth value). The RTL is fairly convoluted, but it's basically a right shift to get the bit into position, bitwise-not then masking off all but the low bit. So it's a 3->2 combine, hidden by the fact that and-not is a define_insn_and_split, so it actually looks like a 2->2 combine. We've run this through Ventana's internal CI (which includes zba_zbb_zbs) and I've run it in my own tester (rv64gc, rv32gcv). I'll wait for the upstream CI to finish with positive results before pushing. Jeff
