+<h4 class="subsection">17.19.4 Example of Attribute Specifications</h4>
+<a name="index-attribute-specifications-example"></a>
+<a name="index-attribute-specifications"></a>
+
+<p>The judicious use of defaulting is important in the efficient use of
+insn attributes. Typically, insns are divided into <em>types</em> and an
+attribute, customarily called <code>type</code>, is used to represent this
+value. This attribute is normally used only to define the default value
+for other attributes. An example will clarify this usage.
+</p>
+<p>Assume we have a RISC machine with a condition code and in which only
+full-word operations are performed in registers. Let us assume that we
+can divide all insns into loads, stores, (integer) arithmetic
+operations, floating point operations, and branches.
+</p>
+<p>Here we will concern ourselves with determining the effect of an insn on
+the condition code and will limit ourselves to the following possible
+effects: The condition code can be set unpredictably (clobbered), not
+be changed, be set to agree with the results of the operation, or only
+changed if the item previously set into the condition code has been
+modified.
+</p>
+<p>Here is part of a sample <samp>md</samp> file for such a machine:
+</p>
+<div class="smallexample">
+<pre class="smallexample">(define_attr &quot;type&quot; &quot;load,store,arith,fp,branch&quot; (const_string &quot;arith&quot;))
+
+(define_attr &quot;cc&quot; &quot;clobber,unchanged,set,change0&quot;
+ (cond [(eq_attr &quot;type&quot; &quot;load&quot;)
+ (const_string &quot;change0&quot;)
+ (eq_attr &quot;type&quot; &quot;store,branch&quot;)
+ (const_string &quot;unchanged&quot;)
+ (eq_attr &quot;type&quot; &quot;arith&quot;)
+ (if_then_else (match_operand:SI 0 &quot;&quot; &quot;&quot;)
+ (const_string &quot;set&quot;)
+ (const_string &quot;clobber&quot;))]
+ (const_string &quot;clobber&quot;)))
+
+(define_insn &quot;&quot;
+ [(set (match_operand:SI 0 &quot;general_operand&quot; &quot;=r,r,m&quot;)
+ (match_operand:SI 1 &quot;general_operand&quot; &quot;r,m,r&quot;))]
+ &quot;&quot;
+ &quot;@
+ move %0,%1
+ load %0,%1
+ store %0,%1&quot;
+ [(set_attr &quot;type&quot; &quot;arith,load,store&quot;)])
+</pre></div>
+
+<p>Note that we assume in the above example that arithmetic operations
+performed on quantities smaller than a machine word clobber the condition
+code since they will set the condition code to a value corresponding to the
+full-word result.
