Subject: [PATCH 16/73] memops, ssa: Walk parent insns in reverse and skip mixed-size SSA
Date: Mon, 9 Nov 2026 12:32:02 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109203259.362845-17-bvanassche@acm.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261109203259.362845-1-bvanassche@acm.org>
Fix dominated-store elimination and SSA promotion in memops.c and ssa.c:
- Walk parent basic block instructions in reverse order in
kill_dominated_stores() so intervening loads or calls after a
dominating store are visited before the store itself.
- Skip SSA promotion in ssa_convert_one_var() when loads or stores
access the same variable with mixed sizes or non-zero offsets.
- Add regression test validation/optim/volatile-dse-and-cfg.c.
