Hi,
  This patch modifies expand_builtin_return and make it call
expand_misaligned_mem_ref to load unaligned memory.  The memory reference
pointed by void* pointer might be unaligned, so expanding it with
unaligned move optabs is safe.

  The new test case illustrates the problem. rs6000 doesn't have
unaligned vector load instruction with VSX disabled. When calling
builtin_return, it shouldn't load the memory to vector register by
unaligned load instruction directly. It should store it to an on stack
variable by extract_bit_field then load to return register from stack
by aligned load instruction.

  Bootstrapped and tested on x86 and powerpc64-linux BE and LE with no
regressions. Is this OK for trunk?

Thanks
Gui Haochen

ChangeLog
expand: Call misaligned memory reference in expand_builtin_return

expand_builtin_return loads memory to return registers.  The memory might
be unaligned compared to the mode of the registers.  So it should be
expanded by unaligned move optabs if the memory reference is unaligned.

gcc/
	PR target/112417
	* builtins.cc (expand_builtin_return): Call
	expand_misaligned_mem_ref for loading unaligned memory reference.
	* builtins.h (expand_misaligned_mem_ref): Declare.
	* expr.cc (expand_misaligned_mem_ref): No longer static.

gcc/testsuite/
	PR target/112417
	* gcc.target/powerpc/pr112417.c: New.

I'm not sure if the testcase is valid though?

@defbuiltin{{void} __builtin_return (void *@var{result})}
This built-in function returns the value described by @var{result} from
the containing function.  You should specify, for @var{result}, a value
returned by @code{__builtin_apply}.
@enddefbuiltin

I don't see __builtin_apply being used here?

Richard.

Hi Richard,
  Thanks so much for your comments.

The prototype of the test case is from "__objc_block_forward" in
libobjc/sendmsg.c.

  void *args, *res;

  args = __builtin_apply_args ();
  res = __objc_forward (rcv, op, args);
  if (res)
    __builtin_return (res);
  else
    ...

The __builtin_apply_args puts the return values on stack by the alignment.
But the forward function can do anything and return a void* pointer.
IMHO the alignment might be broken. So I just simplified it to use a
void* pointer as the input argument of  "__builtin_return" and skip
"__builtin_apply_args".

Thanks
Gui Haochen

But doesn't __objc_forward then break the contract between
__builtin_apply_args and __builtin_return?

That said, __builtin_return is a very special function, it's not supposed
to deal with what you are fixing.  At least I think so.

IMHO the bug is in __objc_block_forward.

If so, can we document that the memory objects pointed by input argument of
__builtin_return have to be aligned? Then we can force the alignment in
__builtin_return. The customer function can do anything if gcc doesn't state
that.

I don't think they have to be aligned - they have to adhere to the ABI
which __builtin_apply_args ensures.  But others might know more details
here.
