RISC-V: bitmanip: add splitter to use bexti for "(a & (1 << BIT_NO)) ? 0 : -1"
Consider creating a polarity-reversed mask from a set-bit (i.e., if the bit is set, produce all-ones; otherwise: all-zeros). Using Zbb, this can be expressed as bexti, followed by an addi of minus-one. To enable the combiner to discover this opportunity, we need to split the canonical expression for "(a & (1 << BIT_NO)) ? 0 : -1" into a form combinable into bexti. Consider the function: long f(long a) { return (a & (1 << BIT_NO)) ? 0 : -1; } This produces the following sequence prior to this change: andi a0,a0,16 seqz a0,a0 neg a0,a0 ret Following this change, it results in: bexti a0,a0,4 addi a0,a0,-1 ret gcc/ChangeLog: * config/riscv/bitmanip.md: Add a splitter to generate polarity-reversed masks from a set bit using bexti + addi. gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog: * gcc.target/riscv/zbs-bexti.c: New test.
