+<h3 class="section">17.20 Conditional Execution</h3>
+<a name="index-conditional-execution"></a>
+<a name="index-predication"></a>
+
+<p>A number of architectures provide for some form of conditional
+execution, or predication. The hallmark of this feature is the
+ability to nullify most of the instructions in the instruction set.
+When the instruction set is large and not entirely symmetric, it
+can be quite tedious to describe these forms directly in the
+<samp>.md</samp> file. An alternative is the <code>define_cond_exec</code> template.
+</p>
+<a name="index-define_005fcond_005fexec"></a>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">(define_cond_exec
+ [<var>predicate-pattern</var>]
+ &quot;<var>condition</var>&quot;
+ &quot;<var>output-template</var>&quot;
+ &quot;<var>optional-insn-attribues</var>&quot;)
+</pre></div>
+
+<p><var>predicate-pattern</var> is the condition that must be true for the
+insn to be executed at runtime and should match a relational operator.
+One can use <code>match_operator</code> to match several relational operators
+at once. Any <code>match_operand</code> operands must have no more than one
+alternative.
+</p>
+<p><var>condition</var> is a C expression that must be true for the generated
+pattern to match.
+</p>
+<a name="index-current_005finsn_005fpredicate"></a>
+<p><var>output-template</var> is a string similar to the <code>define_insn</code>
+output template (see <a href="Output-Template.html#Output-Template">Output Template</a>), except that the &lsquo;<samp>*</samp>&rsquo;
+and &lsquo;<samp>@</samp>&rsquo; special cases do not apply. This is only useful if the
+assembly text for the predicate is a simple prefix to the main insn.
+In order to handle the general case, there is a global variable
+<code>current_insn_predicate</code> that will contain the entire predicate
+if the current insn is predicated, and will otherwise be <code>NULL</code>.
+</p>
+<p><var>optional-insn-attributes</var> is an optional vector of attributes that gets
+appended to the insn attributes of the produced cond_exec rtx. It can
+be used to add some distinguishing attribute to cond_exec rtxs produced
+that way. An example usage would be to use this attribute in conjunction
+with attributes on the main pattern to disable particular alternatives under
+certain conditions.
+</p>
+<p>When <code>define_cond_exec</code> is used, an implicit reference to
+the <code>predicable</code> instruction attribute is made.
+See <a href="Insn-Attributes.html#Insn-Attributes">Insn Attributes</a>. This attribute must be a boolean (i.e. have
+exactly two elements in its <var>list-of-values</var>), with the possible
+values being <code>no</code> and <code>yes</code>. The default and all uses in
+the insns must be a simple constant, not a complex expressions. It
+may, however, depend on the alternative, by using a comma-separated
+list of values. If that is the case, the port should also define an
+<code>enabled</code> attribute (see <a href="Disable-Insn-Alternatives.html#Disable-Insn-Alternatives">Disable Insn Alternatives</a>), which
+should also allow only <code>no</code> and <code>yes</code> as its values.
+</p>
+<p>For each <code>define_insn</code> for which the <code>predicable</code>
+attribute is true, a new <code>define_insn</code> pattern will be
+generated that matches a predicated version of the instruction.
+For example,
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">(define_insn &quot;addsi&quot;
+ [(set (match_operand:SI 0 &quot;register_operand&quot; &quot;r&quot;)
+ (plus:SI (match_operand:SI 1 &quot;register_operand&quot; &quot;r&quot;)
+ (match_operand:SI 2 &quot;register_operand&quot; &quot;r&quot;)))]
+ &quot;<var>test1</var>&quot;
+ &quot;add %2,%1,%0&quot;)
+
+(define_cond_exec
+ [(ne (match_operand:CC 0 &quot;register_operand&quot; &quot;c&quot;)
+ (const_int 0))]
+ &quot;<var>test2</var>&quot;
+ &quot;(%0)&quot;)
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>generates a new pattern
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">(define_insn &quot;&quot;
+ [(cond_exec
+ (ne (match_operand:CC 3 &quot;register_operand&quot; &quot;c&quot;) (const_int 0))
+ (set (match_operand:SI 0 &quot;register_operand&quot; &quot;r&quot;)
+ (plus:SI (match_operand:SI 1 &quot;register_operand&quot; &quot;r&quot;)
+ (match_operand:SI 2 &quot;register_operand&quot; &quot;r&quot;))))]
+ &quot;(<var>test2</var>) &amp;&amp; (<var>test1</var>)&quot;
+ &quot;(%3) add %2,%1,%0&quot;)
