Ah, that means that Jeff implemented rerun-loop-opt slightly  
differently from the way g77 had it; we *did* have an externally  
visible flag -frerun-loop-opt.

Fascinating - this error must have been in g77 too (between 0.5.18,  
April '96 and 0.5.20, March '97).  We never found a problem with it  
though.

For g77-0.5.20 I decided to have loop unrolling only happening in  
the second pass through loop_optimize (as it is in egcs now),  
because the backend is not good at optimising unrolled loops.  One  
can easily check this by compiling the following on a ix86 (for  
simplicity this assumes n % 4 == 0):

      subroutine daxpy(x, y, a, n)
      integer n
      double precision x(n), y(n), a
      do i = 1, n, 4
         y(i  ) = y(i  ) + a * x(i  )
         y(i+1) = y(i+1) + a * x(i+1)
         y(i+2) = y(i+2) + a * x(i+2)
         y(i+3) = y(i+3) + a * x(i+3)
      enddo
      end

This basically is again pointing out that an optimisation that  
combine_givs *should* do isn't done, and we end up using 8 different  
pseudo registers for the array accesses.

HTH,
Toon.

We always had a user visible -frerun-loop-opt option.

I believe Jim was referring to the variable itself -- it was static
in toplev.c, but needed to be external so that loop.c could peek at
it.

nor the C++ compiler (of egcs-971105) (Sorry, threw away the error  
message).  One of the first problems to be solved on  
m68k-next-nextstep3 is to have fixincludes repair  
/NextDeveloper/Headers as that directory is searched before all  
others (with the exception of /usr/local/include and the  
gcc-repaired directories.

To fill my copious spare time, I got egcs-core-971105 +  
egcs-g77-971105.  That combination built just fine and correctly  
compiled my 1300 routine Fortran application.

I wonder if that was actually the most appropriate patch; the comment
in invariant_p says that the information is still not as good as we'd
like to have.

Why not add a new argument to loop_optimize, so that
rest_of_compilation can exactly tell it if there will be an subsequent
loop unrolling.  loop_optimize could then store this information in a
variable static to loop.c .

I believe it's appropriate -- especially for the release.

Something like this is pretty reasonable for the mainline sources.  Will
you implement it and send me the diffs?

I have thought about this some more, and have come to the conclusion that
it would be cleaner not to change flag_unroll_loops in
the first place.
There is also no need to manipulate flag_unroll_all_loops - it has only an
effect on unroll_loop, and this function is only called when some loop
unrolling is done in the first place.

	* loop.c (invariant_p): Don't test flag_rerun_loop_opt.
	(loop_optimize, scan_loop, strength_reduce): New argument unroll_p.
	* toplev.c (rest_of_compilation): Pass it.  Remove code to
	save / clear / restore flag_unroll_{,all_}loops.

Thanks.  I've installed this patch.

	Your patch fixes the unroll bootstrap problems on all three
platforms I had trouble on.  (For the record, they were strange
unresolved symbols on sparc and alpha, as well as an internal compiler
error on powerpc, all three occuring when BOOT_CFLAGS contained -O3
-funroll-all-loops.)

	Thanks Jim.

This may or may not be related to my -g -funroll-loops bug report.
I cannot use them together on x86 with my small test code.
-g -O -funroll-loops kills gcc.

	The dwarf patch made no difference.

	I was able to bootstrap when using "-g -O2".
