The function comment for adjust_field_tree_exp says this special case is for handling trees whose operands may contain pointers to RTL instead of to trees. But ever since r0-59671, which fixed/removed the last two tree codes for which this was possible (GOTO_SUBROUTINE_EXPR and WITH_CLEANUP_EXPR), this special attribute is largely a no-op. This patch removes it and instead just annotates struct tree_exp with the "length" attribute directly. Not sure it makes a difference, but I use %h instead of %0 in the "length" attribute to be consistent with other structures' "length" attributes within tree-core.h. This changes the code generated for TS_EXP handling in gt-cp-tree.h from: case TS_EXP: gt_ggc_m_9tree_node ((*x).generic.exp.typed.type); switch ((int) (TREE_CODE ((tree) &(*x)))) { default: { size_t i3; size_t l3 = (size_t)(TREE_OPERAND_LENGTH ((tree) &(*x))); for (i3 = 0; i3 != l3; i3++) { gt_ggc_m_9tree_node ((*x).generic.exp.operands[i3]); } } break; } break; to: case TS_EXP: { size_t l3 = (size_t)(TREE_OPERAND_LENGTH ((tree)&((*x).generic.exp))); gt_ggc_m_9tree_node ((*x).generic.exp.typed.type); { size_t i3; for (i3 = 0; i3 != l3; i3++) { gt_ggc_m_9tree_node ((*x).generic.exp.operands[i3]); } } } which seems equivalent and simpler. Boostrapped and regtested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, does this look OK for trunk? gcc/ChangeLog: * gengtype.c (adjust_field_tree_exp): Remove. (adjust_field_type): Don't handle the "tree_exp" special attribute. * tree-core.h (struct tree_exp): Replace special and desc attributes with length.
Should this wait until stage1 reopens? It doesn't seem like a bugfix. jeff
