Hi Kaz,
This patch fixes a case in sh.c:find_barrier(), triggered by a testcase
in glibc. The scanning starts from a GOT move instruction, records
itself in 'last_got', but does not find a second GOT move (to reset
last_got to NULL).
It finishes by trying to insert a new barrier in the insn stream, sees
last_got != NULL, and tries to insert at PREV_INSN(last_got), which goes
above the original start insn.
The caller, sh_reorg(), then gets the barrier scan target above the orig
insn, tries (in vain) to find it using a forward scan, and segfaults
when it goes past the insn stream...
The attached patch adds an additional equality check, plus some comment
updates. Cross-tested without regressions, is this okay for trunk?
Thanks,
Chung-Lin
