I guess we can change that and not lose anything.
This is what I committed after retesting on ARM (with -O2 -fpic included
in TORTURE_OPTIONS).
You are not only rejecting invalid pic constants, you reject everything
that's not CONST_INT. That could also include a
(const (unspec ...)) for some integer the target has to calculate after
register allocation / frame layout.
I was wondering if we'd use function_invariant_p in a context where allowing
CONST is important - e.g. could we have something like
(const (plus (const_int anchor) (const_int offset))) from
LEGITIMIZE_RELOAD_ADDRESS.
I've stumbled over this piece of code in reload1.c:elimination_effects:
30134 crux else if (reg_renumber[regno] < 0 && reg_equiv_constant
30134 crux && reg_equiv_constant[regno]
47226 rth && ! function_invariant_p
(reg_equiv_constant[regno]))
30134 crux elimination_effects
(reg_equiv_constant[regno], mem_mode);
30134 crux return;
When will this condition ever trigger? If this is not dead code, then
at least it is lacking a comment.
