Hi all,
I am slowly working on a SwitchInst optimizer (http://llvm.org/PR8125)
and now I am running into a deficiency of the x86
peephole optimizer (or jump-threader?). Here is what I get:
andl $3, %edi
je .LBB0_4
# BB#2: # %nz
# in Loop: Header=BB0_1
Depth=1
cmpl $2, %edi
je .LBB0_6
# BB#3: # %nz.non-middle
# in Loop: Header=BB0_1
Depth=1
cmpl $2, %edi
jbe .LBB0_4
# BB#5: # %sw.bb6
ret
the second 'cmpl' is totally redundant, which pass is
(or would be) in charge of removing it?
Cheers,
Gabor
