------- Additional Comments From pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-08-24 12:40 ------- The loop is: # mask_12 = PHI <mask_26(3), mask_6(1)>; <L0>:; __m2_11 = VIEW_CONVERT_EXPR<vector int>(0); D.1667_18 = VIEW_CONVERT_EXPR<vector signed char>(__m2_11); D.1668_19 = VIEW_CONVERT_EXPR<vector signed char>(D.1659_15); D.1669_20 = __builtin_ia32_punpcklbw (D.1668_19, D.1667_18); mask_26 = mask_12 + 4B; if (end_7 > mask_26) goto <L10>; else goto <L2>;
so tree-ssa-loop-im is not handling VCE at all. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23546
