There are a number of problems in the interaction between secondary memory and subregs. If we reload the inner of a subreg, we forget about this when deciding whether to use secondary memory, and just use REGNO_REG_CLASS on the (now reloaded) inner.
Also, we don't really know what to do if we get a subreg of something that's not a register, such as a symbol_ref. This is another part of the patch below, using a variant of find_valid_class that works in this case. The original testcase we had was the artificial test included in the patch, which involves reinterpreting a pointer to a string constant as a floating point value. Since then, we've also found a larger Altivec testcase which crashes the compiler without this patch. Bootstrapped and tested on i686-linux. It's also been in several of our internal trees, going back to even 4.4-based ones IIRC, and has had testing for several architectures. Ok for the i386 part? I intend to check the reload bits in soon if there are no objections. Bernd
* reload.c (find_valid_class_1): New static function. (push_reload): Use it when reloading a SYMBOL_REG as the inner of a subreg. Keep better track of needed classes for the secondary memory case. * config/i386/i386.h (LIMIT_RELOAD_CLASS): Limit INT_SSE_REGS to GENERAL_REGS. * reload1.c (replaced_subreg): New static function. (gen_reload): Use it when deciding whether to use secondary memory.
