*cbranch_2insn is not a machine insn. It generates a cror and a branch insn. This makes no sense to have in a cbranchcc: those do a branch based on an existing cr field, so based on the *output* of that cror. If ifcvt requires differently, ifcvt needs fixing. We want to use the output of the cror multiple times, not generate more cror insns. > (unlt (reg:CCFP 156) > (const_int 0 [0])) > > It should be valid as it's extracted from an existing insn. Why is that an argument? The code is valid, sure, but that doesn't mean we want to generate it all over the place. > It hits ICE only > when the comparison rtx can't pass the predicate check of "cbranchcc4".

It won't hit ICEs after cbranchcc4 is correctly defined. I don't think the behaviour of ifcvt is correct here at all, no. It also does not consider the cost of the code as far as I can see? That could reduce the impact of this problem at least. > Actually, "*cbranch_2insn" has the same logical as float "*cbranch" in ifcvt. > Both of them get a final false return from "rs6000_emit_int_cmove" as rs6000 > doesn't have conditional move for FP mode. I am about to commit patches for that. But only for p10 and later. It should eventually work for everything with isel (setbc can often be optimised to isel after all), but the compiler has to work without isel as well of course. > So I think "cbranchcc4" should include "extra_insn_branch_comparison_operator" > as "*cbranch_2insn" is a valid insn. Just let ifcvt decide a conditional > move is valid or not. It makes a bad decision though. This is not okay. Segher
