--- Comment #9 from Kai Tietz <ktietz at gcc dot gnu.org> --- Issue is related to option -fasynchronous-unwind-tables option. Better said to option -fasynchronous-unwind-tables without -funwind-tables. Following sample can demonstrate issue pretty well: '#include <intrin.h> int a;' By compiling test by '$ x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc -S -o t.s t_xmmintrin.c -O2 -fasynchronous-unwind-tables' I can reproduce the fentry message. By removing option -fasynchronous-unwind-tables, or adding -funwind-tables option message won't be displayed. By following patch for me the issue is solved: Index: i386.c =================================================================== --- i386.c (Revision 205859) +++ i386.c (Arbeitskopie) @@ -3698,6 +3698,10 @@ { if (opts->x_optimize >= 1 && !opts_set->x_flag_omit_frame_pointer) opts->x_flag_omit_frame_pointer = !USE_X86_64_FRAME_POINTER; + if (opts->x_flag_asynchronous_unwind_tables + && !opts_set->x_flag_unwind_tables + && TARGET_64BIT_MS_ABI) + opts->x_flag_unwind_tables = 1; if (opts->x_flag_asynchronous_unwind_tables == 2) opts->x_flag_unwind_tables = opts->x_flag_asynchronous_unwind_tables = 1; I will apply this patch to trunk soon, if there are no objections.
