If your target does not have SHL then why don't you simply disable converting MUL to SHL?

Again to be clear, you r calling a custom hook and not using expand correct?

Yes I have custom hook for both mul and shifts because if barrel shift hardware unit is present than we try to optmize MUL to SHL. and if barrel shiftier is not present than hardware can use MUL and ADD to implement left shift operation. - Vivek On Sat, Mar 4, 2017 at 11:52 PM, Ryan Taylor <ryta1203 at gmail.com> wrote:> Again to be clear, you r calling a custom hook and not using expand > correct? > > On Mar 4, 2017 10:12 AM, "vivek pandya" <vivekvpandya at gmail.com> wrote: > >> Yes that is the file. >> >> On Saturday, March 4, 2017, Ryan Taylor <ryta1203 at gmail.com> wrote: >> >>> To be clear, where r u trying to lower it?
