[llvm-dev] Getting differences with ldr/str instructions

[Ramakota Reddy via llvm-dev]

Hi All,

I have fixed one issue in AArch64LoadStoreOptimizer.cpp file.

e.g:  have two instructions like below
add x8, x9,x8, lsl #2
ldr w1, [x8]

and I have merged these two instructions into one instruction like below, and I am deleting add instruction if don't have any uses.
ldr w1, [x9,x8, lsl #2]

But some llvm-test-sute tests are failing because getting difference in assembly code generation. I did bisecting with object files to find the issue.
In one failing test z12.c file, if I generate z12.o using z12.s of z12.c file it's working.
but if I generate direct z12.o using z12.c file and it's not working.

so I did disassemble the both z12.o files and I have observed below differences in one ldr instruction(above  merged ldr instruction).
F38: b869eb61   ldr w1, [x9, x8, sxtx] ( disassemble  code of z12.o generated using z12.c).
F38: b8697b61   ldr w1, [x9, x8, lsl #2] ( disassemble code of z12.o generated using z12.s).

I am getting above two differences, because of these differences test is failing.
Could any one please give your suggestions to fix this problem.

Thanks & Regards,
Ramakota.
