Subject: [PATCH] fix casts when linearizing compound assignments
Date: Fri, 8 Jun 2012 06:47:40 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1339152460-17411-1-git-send-email-xi.wang@gmail.com> (raw)
linearize_assignment() emits confusing casts for compound assignments.
Consider p += 1, where p is a pointer.
oldvalue = cast_pseudo(ep, oldvalue, src->ctype, expr->ctype);
opcode = opcode_sign(op_trans[expr->op - SPECIAL_BASE], src->ctype);
dst = add_binary_op(ep, src->ctype, opcode, oldvalue, value);
value = cast_pseudo(ep, dst, expr->ctype, src->ctype);
It would make more sense to swap src->ctype and expr->ctype in both
cast_pseudo(ep, pseudo, from, to) calls:
In the first call, `oldvalue' is a pointer (expr->ctype), but it is
converted from an integer (src->ctype) to a pointer (expr->ctype);
In the second call, `dst' is an integer (src->ctype), but it is
converted from a pointer (expr->ctype) to an integer (src->ctype).
This patch instead converts `value' from an integer (src->ctype) to a
pointer (expr->ctype) so as to emit fewer casts.
