Re: gcc porting - machine description for realizing multiplication with a routine call

Hi Diego,

1. According to the insn rtx of error message,
   I think you can check the design of "*move_reg" pattern.
   You probably missed some constraints.

2. Since there is no 'mul' instruction on your target,
   perhaps you can try not to provide any multiply naming patterns.
   GCC will generate library call for you.
   See Chapter 4 of GCC Internals for more information. :)


Best regards,
