Without the patch, the inner loop x86 code (compiled at -O2):
leal (%rcx,%rax), %edx
movl %edx, %edi
shrl $31, %edi
addl %edx, %edi
sarl %edi
movslq %edi, %rdx
cmpl %esi, (%r8,%rdx,4)
cmovlel %edx, %eax
cmovgl %edx, %ecx
leal 1(%rax), %edx
cmpl %edx, %ecx
jne .LBB0_3
With the patch:
addl %ecx, %eax
movl %eax, %ecx
shrl $31, %ecx
addl %eax, %ecx
sarl %ecx
movslq %ecx, %rax
cmpl %esi, (%rdx,%rax,4)
movq %r9, %rcx
cmovgq %r8, %rcx
movl %eax, (%rcx)
movl -8(%rsp), %ecx
movl -4(%rsp), %eax
leal 1(%rax), %edi
cmpl %edi, %ecx
jne .LBB0_3
2 more memory store instructions are generated.
This is because when simplifycfg combines 2 store address into a select, SROA can no longer find the pairing for instruction addresses between load and store, thus the store cannot be removed.
