Sorry to hear about the degradation. Do you have more details on which patch and/or what specifically causes the degradation? This patch should only affect the execution path outside the unrolled loop (worst case is probably for loops that execute once). The pr68212 patch is just correcting some of the block frequency/count issues, so they're not as screwed up as what they were. Thanks, Pat

[PATCH] Don't peel extra copy of loop in unroller for loops with exit at end
I noticed the loop unroller peels an extra copy of the loop before it enters the switch block code to round the iteration count to a multiple of the unroll factor. This peeled copy is only needed for the case where the exit test is at the beginning of the loop since in that case it inserts the test for zero peel iterations before that peeled copy. This patch bumps the iteration count by 1 for loops with the exit at the end so that it represents the number of times the loop body is executed, and therefore removes the need to always execute that first peeled copy. With this change, when the number of executions of the loop is an even multiple of the unroll factor then the code will jump to the unrolled loop immediately instead of executing all the switch code and peeled copies of the loop and then falling into the unrolled loop. This change also reduces code size by removing a peeled copy of the loop. Bootstrap/regtest on powerpc64le with no new regressions.
