Complement commit c1e8cb3d9f94 ("RISC-V: Rework branch costing model for 
if-conversion") and also handle extraneous sign extend operations that 
are sometimes produced by `noce_try_cmove_arith' instead of zero extend 
operations, making branch costing consistent.  It is unclear what the 
condition is for the middle end to choose between the zero extend and 
sign extend operation, but the test case included uses sign extension 
with 64-bit targets, preventing if-conversion from triggering across all 
the architectural variants.

There are further anomalies revealed by the test case, specifically the 
exceedingly high branch cost of 6 required for the `-mmovcc' variant 
despite that the final branchless sequence only uses 4 instructions, the 
missed conversion at -O1 for 32-bit targets even though code is machine 
word size agnostic, and the missed conversion at -Os and -Oz for 32-bit 
Zicond targets even though the branchless sequence would be shorter than 
the branched one.  These will have to be handled separately.

	gcc/
	* config/riscv/riscv.cc (riscv_noce_conversion_profitable_p):
	Also handle sign extension.

	gcc/testsuite/
	* gcc.target/riscv/cset-sext-sfb.c: New test.
	* gcc.target/riscv/cset-sext-thead.c: New test.
	* gcc.target/riscv/cset-sext-ventana.c: New test.
	* gcc.target/riscv/cset-sext-zicond.c: New test.
	* gcc.target/riscv/cset-sext.c: New test.

Hi,

 This is still in regression-testing, but as a branch costing adjustment 
only I don't expect any code correctness issues, and the performance 
advantage seems very obvious as the sign extend operation applied to the 
result of a conditional set instruction is always a no-op, just as with 
the zero extension.

 Depending on how you look at it you may qualify this as a bug fix (for 
the commit referred; it's surely rare enough a case I missed in original 
testing) or a missed optimisation.  Either way it's a narrow-scoped very 
small change, almost an obviously correct one.  I'll be very happy to get 
it off my plate now, but if it has to wait for GCC 15, I'll accept the 
decision.

 OK to apply then or shall I wait?

  Maciej

 Thank you for your review, I have now pushed this change.
