Avoid duplicate vector initializations during RTL expansion.
This middle-end patch avoids some redundant RTL for vector initialization during RTL expansion. For the simple test case: typedef __int128 v1ti __attribute__ ((__vector_size__ (16))); __int128 key; v1ti foo() { return (v1ti){key}; } the middle-end currently expands: (set (reg:V1TI 85) (const_vector:V1TI [ (const_int 0) ])) (set (reg:V1TI 85) (mem/c:V1TI (symbol_ref:DI ("key")))) where we create a dead instruction that initializes the vector to zero, immediately followed by a set of the entire vector. This patch skips this zeroing instruction when the vector has only a single element. It also updates the code to indicate when we've cleared the vector, so that we don't need to initialize zero elements. 2023-06-13 Roger Sayle <roger@nextmovesoftware.com> gcc/ChangeLog * expr.cc (store_constructor) <case VECTOR_TYPE>: Don't bother clearing vectors with only a single element. Set CLEARED if the vector was initialized to zero.
