</div><br>This patch appears to cause slight changes in three test cases:</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><div class="gmail_extra"> LLVM :: Transforms/IndVarSimplify/lftr-reuse.ll</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"> LLVM :: Transforms/LoopSimplify/ashr-crash.ll</div><div class="gmail_extra"> LLVM :: Transforms/LoopStrengthReduce/2011-12-19-PostincQuadratic.ll</div><div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">
Looking at lftr-reuse.ll, we successfully hoist the 'icmp slt' into the 'outer:' block as the comment says would be nice (because the outer loop is simplified now, the test is checking for unsimplified). The LSR failure is just that the loop basic blocks have different names (loopexit instead of preheader).</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">The ashr-crash.ll case is minutely interesting -- we fail to hoist the comparison that the test wants hoisted into the entry block. My suspicion is that getting this to hoist with the heavily reduced pipeline used is problematic, as the test seems more geared to tickle SCEV bugs than test important optimization invariants.</div>
<div class="gmail_extra"><br></div><div class="gmail_extra">All of the other regression tests pass, so this looks pretty good to me. Let me know! I can mail the patch tomorrow if it helps.</div></div></div>
