Handle sibcalls with aggregate returns
We treated this g as a sibling call to f:
int f (int);
int g (void) { return f (1); }
but not this one:
struct s { int i; };
struct s f (int);
struct s g (void) { return f (1); }
We treated them both as sibcalls on x86 before the first patch for PR36326,
so I suppose this is a regression of sorts from 4.3.
The patch allows function returns to be local aggregate variables as well
as gimple registers.
gcc/
* tree-tailcall.c (process_assignment): Simplify the check for
a valid copy, allowing the source to be a local variable as
well as an SSA name.
(find_tail_calls): Allow copies between local variables to follow
the call. Allow the result to be stored in any local variable,
even if it's an aggregate.
(eliminate_tail_call): Check whether the result is an SSA name
before updating its SSA_NAME_DEF_STMT.
gcc/testsuite/
* gcc.dg/tree-ssa/tailcall-7.c: New test.
