_foo:
movl $12, %eax
andl 4(%esp), %eax
movl _array(%eax), %eax
ret
instead of:
_foo:
movl 4(%esp), %eax
shrl $2, %eax
andl $3, %eax
movl _array(,%eax,4), %eax
ret
As it turns out, this triggers all the time, in a wide variety of
situations, for example, I see diffs like this in various programs:
- movl 8(%eax), %eax
- shll $2, %eax
- andl $1020, %eax
- movl (%esi,%eax), %eax
+ movzbl 8(%eax), %eax
+ movl (%esi,%eax,4), %eax
- shll $2, %edx
- andl $1020, %edx
- movl (%edi,%edx), %edx
+ andl $255, %edx
+ movl (%edi,%edx,4), %edx
Unfortunately, I also see stuff like this, which can be fixed in the
X86 backend:
- andl $85, %ebx
- addl _bit_count(,%ebx,4), %ebp
+ shll $2, %ebx
+ andl $340, %ebx
+ addl _bit_count(%ebx), %ebp
