[LLVMdev] [LLVMDev] Is there any way to eliminate zero-extension instruction?
Dear developers. We try to make our own backend of llvm for our target machine. Assume that we have the following code in our source code. int i = ( a < b ); The code is translated into r0 <- gt r1 r2 r3 <- and r0 0x1 We think that r3 is not necessary. Is there any way to eliminate it by just modifying our backend? Thank you in advance. Minwook Ahn -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Add the following to the constructor of your ISelLowering class: setBooleanContents(ZeroOrOneBooleanContent); -- Richard Osborne | XMOS http://www.xmos.com

Thank you for your reply. In case of setcc, I saw it was removed. But I could not delete the extension instruction in other cases of zero extension from i1 to i32. For example, in this case. int main( int argc, char *argv[] ) { int i = ( argc > 0 ) & ( argv != NULL ); return i; } So can you let us know how to remove it? Thank you in advance. Minwook Ahn p.s. Sorry for the duplicated message if you get this twice. 2010/1/20 Richard Osborne <richard at xmos.com>> > On 20 Jan 2010, at 07:55, minwook Ahn wrote: > > > Dear developers. > > > > We try to make our own backend of llvm for our target machine. > > > > Assume that we have the following code in our source code. > > > > int i = ( a < b ); > > > > The code is translated into > > > > r0 <- gt r1 r2 > > r3 <- and r0 0x1 > > > > We think that r3 is not necessary.
