You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with GCC; see the file COPYING3. If not see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/. Check all of the uses of pseudo variables. If any use that is MUST uninitialized, add a store of 0 immediately before it. For subregs, this makes combine happy. For full word regs, this makes other optimizations, like the register allocator and the reg-stack happy as well as papers over some problems on the arm and other processors where certain isa constraints cannot be handled by gcc. These are of the form where two operands to an insn my not be the same. The ra will only make them the same if they do not interfere, and this can only happen if one is not initialized.

There is also the unfortunate consequence that this may mask some buggy programs where people forget to initialize stack variable. Any programmer with half a brain would look at the uninitialized variable warnings.

             Only do this for the pseudos.   
             Do not generate multiple moves for the same regno.
             This is common for sequences of subreg operations.
             They would be deleted during combine but there is no
             reason to churn the system.   
             A use is MUST uninitialized if it reaches the top of
             the block from the inside of the block (the lr test)
             and no def for it reaches the top of the block from
             outside of the block (the ur test).
