This is particularly interesting when the original divisor is a constant so you can materialize the reciprocal at compile-time. You’re right that in either case, this optimization should only kick in when there is more than one divide instruction that will be changed to a mul.</div><div><br></div><div>I don’t have a strong preference for instcombine vs. dagcombine, though I lean slightly towards later when we’ll have more target information available if we want to apply a more complicated cost function for some targets.</div><div><br></div><div>-Jim</div><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On Aug 8, 2013, at 9:25 AM, Chad Rosier <<a href="mailto:chad.rosier@gmail.com">chad.rosier@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px;">I would like to transform X/Y -> X*1/Y.

Also, I only want to perform the transformation if there are multiple uses of 1/Y (like in my test case). Otherwise, the transformation replaces a fdiv with a fdiv+fmul pair, which I doubt would be profitable.<br><br>FWIW, I'm also pretty sure this combine requires -fast-math.<br><br>Can someone point me in the right direction?<br><br> Thanks,<br> Chad<br>_______________________________________________<br>LLVM Developers mailing list<br><a href="mailto:LLVMdev@cs.uiuc.edu">LLVMdev@cs.uiuc.edu</a><span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span> <a href="http://llvm.cs.uiuc.edu/">http://llvm.cs.uiuc.edu</a><br><a href="http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/llvmdev">http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/mailman/listinfo/llvmdev</a></div></blockquote></div><br></div></body></html>
