Something like this:

  ... Calls to these built-ins with integer constant arguments
  evaluate to integer constants expressions.
  For example, in the following, c is assigned
  the result of a * b only if the multiplication
  does not overflow, otherwise it is assigned the value zero.
  The multiplication is performed at compile-time and without

enum {

  b = 87654321,
  c = __builtin_mul_overflow_p (a, b, a) ? 0 : a * b

this works for me, modulo the closing  which I believe will be
necessary.  Were you seeing approval for this from someone?  (If so,
that may not have been me. ;-)


Thanks.  I just committed it.

I am sorry, I got confused by the mail I was quoting.  I meant
deprecated, because I thought that was the appropriate thing to do.
However, I personally will not object if we remove it.

I'll have a look at how it is done and prepare a patch, it may take a
few days though because I am traveling now.

What are obsolete options?  Do you mean deprecated or removed?
We have ignored options retained just for compatibility that do nothing.
-fipa-cp-alignment does nothing right now (nothing ever checks it), but
it isn't declared as Ignore and is documented (ignored options aren't
documented).  The current state is that e.g. x_flag_ipa_cp_alignment is
still a field in global_options* etc.

Well, -fipa-bit-cp is a superset of the old -fipa-cp-alignment in the
sense that the latter worked only for pointers whereas the former now
also operates on integers.

We could still refuse to store results of the analysis to pointers if
user provided -fno-ipa-cp-alignment, but I do not think it is
reasonable.  My preference would be to mark it obsolete and document
that -fipa-bit-cp should be used instead.

I'm not sure I understand, it was used by gcc 6 and the documentation
describes what it did.  The documentation of course should be updated.

I've committed it as is, feel free to propose changes.  But before that, we
should figure out what to do with -fipa-cp-alignment.  Should it have
Ignore flag and
Does nothing. Preserved for backward compatibility.
description in common.opt, and

@item -fipa-cp-alignment
@opindex -fipa-cp-alignment
When enabled, this optimization propagates alignment of function
parameters to support better vectorization and string operations.

This flag is enabled by default at @option{-O2} and @option{-Os}.  It
requires that @option{-fipa-cp} is enabled.
@option{-fipa-cp-alignment} is obsolete, use @option{-fipa-bit-cp} instead.

removed altogether, or should it say be alias for -fipa-bit-cp?
The documentation certainly doesn't document what it does, because nothing
ever looks at that flag, so it is effectively ignored, not just obsolete.

Hi,
Just a small comment:  -fipa-bit-cp makes -fipa-cp-alignment deprecated.
Sorry for not documenting this option myself and thanks for writing it up!

The subpass _is_ generic, I would move it like Kyrill says.

Yeah, I've also noticed that, but not sure what is better, as it is only 2
targets that support it, so it is not really generic enough.  It is unclear what
is better.

AArch64 also implements these hooks and so benefits from the optimisation as

+  A new code hoisting optimization has been added to the partial
+  redundancy elimination pass.  It attempts to move evaluation of
+  expressions executed on all paths to the function exit as early as
+  possible, which helps primarily for code size, but can be useful for
+  speed of generated code as well.  It can be enabled by using the
+  -fcode-hoisting option and is enabled by default at
+  the -O2 optimization level or higher.
+
+  A new interprocedural bitwise constant propagation optimization
+  has been added, which propagates knowledge about which bits of variables
+  are known to be zero (including pointer alignment information) across
+  the call graph.  It can be enabled by using the -fipa-bit-cp
+  option if -fipa-cp is enabled as well, and is enabled by
+  default at the -O2 optimization level and higher.
+
+  A new interprocedural value range propagation optimization has been
+  added, which propagates integral ranges that variable values can be proven
+  to be within across the call graph.  It can be enabled by using the
+  -fipa-vrp option and is enabled by default at the
+  -O2 optimization level and higher.
+
+  A new loop splitting optimization pass has been added.  It splits
+  certain loops if they contain a condition that is always true on one
+  side of the iteration space and always false on the other into two
+  loops where each of the new two loops iterates just on one of the sides
+  of the iteration space and the condition does not need to be checked
+  inside of the loop.  It can be enabled by using the
+  -fsplit-loops option and is enabled by default at the
+  -O3 optimization level or higher.
