When running test-case gdb.opt/clobbered-registers-O2.exp with gcc-12, I run
into:
...
(gdb) PASS: gdb.opt/clobbered-registers-O2.exp: backtracing
print operand0^M
$1 = (unsigned int *) 0x7fffffffd070^M
(gdb) print *operand0^M
$2 =
4195541^M
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.opt/clobbered-registers-O2.exp: print operand0
...
The problem is that starting gcc-12, the assignments to x and y in main are
optimized away:
...
int main(void)
{
unsigned x, y;
x = 13;
y = 14;
return (int)gen_movsd (&x, &y);
...
Fix this by making x and y volatile.
Note that the test-case intends to check the handling of debug info for
optimized code in function gen_movsd, so inhibiting optimization in main
doesn't interfere with that.
Tested on x86_64-linux.

int main(void)
{
- unsigned x, y;
+ volatile unsigned x, y;
x = 13;
y = 14;
