--- Comment #31 from Bernd Edlinger <bernd.edlinger at hotmail dot de> --- Sure, combine cant help, especially because it runs before split1. But I wondered why this peephole2 is not enabled: (define_peephole2 ; ldrd [(set (match_operand:SI 0 "arm_general_register_operand" "") (match_operand:SI 2 "memory_operand" "")) (set (match_operand:SI 1 "arm_general_register_operand" "") (match_operand:SI 3 "memory_operand" ""))] "TARGET_LDRD && current_tune->prefer_ldrd_strd && !optimize_function_for_size_p (cfun)" [(const_int 0)] I have -march=armv7-a / -mcpu=cortex-a9 and thus for me current_tune-> prefer_ldrd_strd is FALSE. Furthermore, if I want to do -Os the third condition is FALSE too. But one ldrd must be shorter than two ldr ? That seems wrong...
