Hi All I've just shifteed over to linux,form Windows.I 'm having 5 partations for use by my windows XP Professional and another one by linux.The partation table is as shown : ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [...

Dear All, I am trying to custom lower 32-bit ISD::SHL and SHR in a backend for 6502 family CPUs. The particular subtarget has 16-bit registers at most, so a 32-bit result is not legal. Normally, if you mark this as "Legal" or "Expand", then it will expand the node into a more nodes as follows in an example: shl i32 %a , 2 => high_sdvalue = (or (shr %b, 14), (shl %c, 2) )

I had a similar problem with a backend for the 68HC12 family which also has no barrel shifter. Some 68HC12 CPUs support shift for just one of the 16-bit registers and only support rotation on the 2 8-bit subregs of that 16-bit register. That means the only practical solution for 32-bit shifts is to lower to a libcall but my situation for 16-bit shifts sounds similar to yours for 32-bit shifts. I

I forgot to mention that I used EXTRACT_ELEMENT in my backend to get the high and low parts of an SDValue.

Hi Steve, Thanks for confirming that EXTRACT_ELEMENT is something I can use. I had seen it in the generated DAGs but was unsure whether I was "allowed" to use it, if that's the right word. I checked up on it more and indeed the mainstream targets like ARM use that node type in custom lowering code, so that should solve that. Perhaps in the future I might submit a patch for
