This opportunity is found from spec 2017 557.xz_r. And it is used by the sha encrypt/decrypt. See sha-2/sha512.c
static void store64(u64 x, unsigned char* y) { for(int i = 0; i != 8; ++i) y[i] = (x >> ((7-i) * 8)) & 255; } static u64 load64(const unsigned char* y) { u64 res = 0; for(int i = 0; i != 8; ++i) res |= (u64)(y[i]) << ((7-i) * 8); return res; }
The load64 has been implemented by https://reviews.llvm.org/D26149
This patch is trying to implement the store pattern.
Match a pattern where a wide type scalar value is stored by several narrow
stores. Fold it into a single store or a BSWAP and a store if the targets
supports it.
Assuming little endian target:
i8 *p = ...
i32 val = ...
p[0] = (val >> 0) & 0xFF;
p[1] = (val >> 8) & 0xFF;
p[2] = (val >> 16) & 0xFF;
p[3] = (val >> 24) & 0xFF;
>
*((i32)p) = val;
i8 *p = ...
i32 val = ...
p[0] = (val >> 24) & 0xFF;
p[1] = (val >> 16) & 0xFF;
p[2] = (val >> 8) & 0xFF;
p[3] = (val >> 0) & 0xFF;
>
*((i32)p) = BSWAP(val);
