Subjectgcc optimizer miscompiles code with sigaddset on i386 if sig arg is const -- PATCH proposed
I have run into problem using sigaddset() with constant signal argument 
in kernel code.

A code like the following gets miscompiled:

sigset_t a;
sigset_t b;
sigset_t c;

...........
sigaddset(&a, const1);
sigaddset(&a, const2);
................................
b =a; /* this line causes incorrect code; any 64-bit assignment seems
to cause a problem! */
sigaddset(&c, const2);
sigaddset(&c, const3);
/* more sigaddset to c */

All versions of compilers and all kernel versions are affected. The
problem is also reproducible in user space (with kernel sigaddset
definition). Looking at the dissassembly (or running in the debugger)
clearly shows that gcc miscompiled the code.

Attached please find a C code (can be compiled into module or
executable) that demonstrates the problem. Attached is also a patch that
fixes the problem (the patch was prepared against 2.6 tree).

I defined sigaddset a macro (similar to sigismember) that calls one
function for constant argument and another for variable. In addition to
fixing the problem, it also makes sigaddset() faster for constant arguments.

To be on the safe side, I changed sigdelset() in the same way (I think
the same gcc bug may apply).
