A special form of define_attr
, where the expression for the
default value is a const
expression, indicates an attribute that
is constant for a given run of the compiler. Constant attributes may be
used to specify which variety of processor is used. For example,
(define_attr "cpu" "m88100,m88110,m88000" (const (cond [(symbol_ref "TARGET_88100") (const_string "m88100") (symbol_ref "TARGET_88110") (const_string "m88110")] (const_string "m88000")))) (define_attr "memory" "fast,slow" (const (if_then_else (symbol_ref "TARGET_FAST_MEM") (const_string "fast") (const_string "slow"))))
The routine generated for constant attributes has no parameters as it
does not depend on any particular insn. RTL expressions used to define
the value of a constant attribute may use the symbol_ref
form,
but may not use either the match_operand
form or eq_attr
forms involving insn attributes.
