I think the compare is not a commutative operation, and swapping the arguments will imply a different value in the flags. So if I write (set (reg:CC_NCV CC_REGNUM) (compare:CC_NCV (const_int 0) (reg:DI 123))) I have C,N,V set to the result of (0 - r123), C =3D usable for LTU or GEU, N,V =3D usable for LT, GE But if I write (set (reg:CC_NCV CC_REGNUM) (compare:CC_NCV (reg:DI 123) (const_int 0))) I have C,N,V set to the result of (r123 - 0), but the expansion stays the same and the actual value in the flags is defined by the expansion. Of course there exists probably no matching expansion for that. Note that both LTU in the above hunk are in a parallel-stmt and operate on the flags from the previous pattern, so changing these to GEU will probably be wrong. Both (ltu:SI (reg:CC_C CC_REGNUM) (const_int 0)) in the negdi2_compare use the flags from the previous (set (reg:CC CC_REGNUM) (compare:CC (const_int 0) (match_dup 1)). One use of the resulting flags (I know of) is in negvdi3 where we have: emit_insn (gen_negdi2_compare (operands[0], operands[1])); arm_gen_unlikely_cbranch (NE, CC_Vmode, operands[2]); I think only 0-x can overflow while x-0 can never overflow. Of course the CC_NCV_CIC mode bends the definition of the RTL compare a lot and I guess if this pattern is created by a splitter, this can only be expanded by an exactly matching pattern, there is (hopefully) no way how combine could mess with this pattern due to the exotic CCmode. So while I think it would work to swap only the notation of all CC_NCV_CIC patterns, _without_ changing the assembler-parts and the consuming statements, that would make it quite hard to follow for the human reader at least. What do you think? Bernd.
