--- Comment #1 from Hongtao.liu <crazylht at gmail dot com> --- (In reply to Topi Miettinen from comment #0) > GCC on x86_64 with `-mfentry` generates invalid code for `-mcmodel=large`. > The call to `__fentry__` uses plain `call` instruction, but this can only > address locations within 32 bit range while the target may be anywhere in > the 64 bit range due to `-mcmodel=large`. > > The expected code would be something which loads a 64 bit value to a > register and then uses register indirect call, so instead of > call __fentry__ > there needs to be > movabsq $__fentry__, %rax > call *%rax according to PSabi, %rax is not safe. %rax temporary register; with variable arguments No passes information about the number of vector registers used; 1 st return register and by the time of output __fentry__ in gcc, register is already accocated, is there any regs supposed to be safe in the entry of function? or we need to spill reg to stack and load it back after call, it looks inefficient.
