Bug ID: 67334
Summary: [4.7 arm inline-asm] inline assembly incorrect
register allocation
Product: gcc
Version: 4.7.4
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: inline-asm
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: anmin_deng at yahoo dot com.tw
Target Milestone: ---
A very simple code with ARM inline assembly
== "test.c" ==>
extern unsigned x;
extern unsigned s;
void
h(void)
{
unsigned a, b, c, d;
unsigned i;
__asm__ volatile ("mrrc p15,2,%0,%1,c14" : "=r"(a),"=r"(b));
i = 12000000;
__asm__ volatile ("\n"
" adds %0,%2,%4\n"
" adc %1,%3,$0"
: "=r"(c),"=r"(d)
: "r"(a),"r"(b),"r"(i) : "cc");
__asm__ volatile ("mcrr p15,2,%0,%1,c14" : : "r"(c),"r"(d));
if (a == x) {
++s;
}
}
<===
To compile the above simple test code on PC cygwin with ARM target
cross-compiler and "-Os" options:
"arm-none-eabi-gcc -ansi -Wall -W -Os -mcpu=cortex-a7 test.c -S".
The generated result is allocating incorrect register...
=== "test.s" ===>
...
h:
...
@ 9 "test.c" 1
mrrc p15,2,r3,r2,c14
@ 0 "" 2
ldr r1, .L3
@ 11 "test.c" 1
adds r2,r3,r1 @INCORRECT! reg "r2" allocated, "@ 9" above corrupted
adc r1,r2,$0
@ 0 "" 2
@ 16 "test.c" 1
mcrr p15,2,r2,r1,c14
@ 0 "" 2
...
<===
On the other hand, to compile with "-O2" option
"arm-none-eabi-gcc -ansi -Wall -W -O2 -mcpu=cortex-a7 test.c -S",
the generated result is OK.
