            Bug ID: 89676
           Summary: Redundant moves for long long shift on 32bit x86
           Product: gcc
           Version: 9.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: rtl-optimization
          Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
          Reporter: ubizjak at gmail dot com
  Target Milestone: ---

Following testcase:

--cut here--
unsigned long long
foo (unsigned long long i)
{
  return i << 3;
}
--cut here--

compiles for 32bit x86 to (-O2):

        pushl   %ebx
        movl    8(%esp), %ecx
        movl    12(%esp), %ebx
        movl    %ecx, %eax
        movl    %ebx, %edx
        popl    %ebx
        shldl   $3, %eax, %edx
        sall    $3, %eax
        ret

There is unnecessary move to %ecx/%ebx pair in the above code.

Clang creates:

        movl    4(%esp), %eax
        movl    8(%esp), %edx
        shldl   $3, %eax, %edx
        shll    $3, %eax
        retl
