As mentioned in PR65768, ARM gcc generates suboptimal code for constant
Uses in loop. Part of the reason is that ARM back-end is splitting
constants during expansion of RTL, making it hard for the RTL
optimization passes to optimize it. Zhenqiang posted a patch at
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-08/msg00325.html to fix this
As mentioned in PR65768, I tried with few more test-cases and enhanced
it. Regression tested on arm-none-linux-gnu and no new regressions. Is
this OK for trunk?
Can you please post the code generated for the testcase
before and after the patch for the record?
Thanks,
