Commit Message

Richard Sandiford July 13, 2017, 9:02 a.m. UTC
This patch treats the mode associated with an integer constant as a
scalar_mode.  We can't use the more natural-sounding scalar_int_mode
because we also use (const_int 0) for bounds-checking modes.  (It might
be worth adding a bounds-specific code instead, but that's for another
day.)

This exposes a latent bug in simplify_immed_subreg, which for
vectors of CONST_WIDE_INTs would pass the vector mode rather than
the element mode to rtx_mode_t.

I think the:

		  /* We can get a 0 for an error mark.  */
		  || GET_MODE_CLASS (mode) == MODE_VECTOR_INT
		  || GET_MODE_CLASS (mode) == MODE_VECTOR_FLOAT

in immed_double_const is dead.  trunc_int_mode (via gen_int_mode)
would go on to ICE if the mode fitted in a HWI, and surely plenty
of other code would be confused to see a const_int be interpreted
as a vector.  We should instead be using CONST0_RTX (mode) if we
need a safe constant for a particular mode.

We didn't try to make these functions take scalar_mode arguments
because in many cases that would be too invasive at this stage.
Maybe it would become feasible in future.  Also, the long-term
direction should probably be to add modes to constant integers
rather than have then as VOIDmode odd-ones-out.  That would remove
the need for rtx_mode_t and thus remove the question whether they
should use scalar_int_mode, scalar_mode or machine_mode.

The patch also uses scalar_mode for the CONST_DOUBLE handling
in loc_descriptor.  In that case the mode can legitimately be
either floating-point or integral.

Is that the only reason why we can't use scalar_int_mode here -- the
bounds checking stuff?  What if it were to just magically disappear?

An interesting nugget.   It appears Aldy's commit message, but not in
the approved patch from June 2002.

Yea, if we wanted to use 0 as an error mark, we should be using it via
CONST0_RTX (mode).

THe lack of a mode on CONST_INTs is a long standing wart.  It's been
eons since we really thought about how to fix it.    I'd have to dig
real deep to remember why we've let the wart stand so long

:-)  I *think* that was the only case, but it's possible that once
we hit it, we didn't look much further.

When I last looked at the history, I got the impression it was just
lack of time.  I have a vague plan for how we could transition to
integers with modes, but then I've had the same plan for a while now
and no realistic chance of getting time to do it.

Thanks,
Richard
