Hi,
I have declared a builtin that receives a function pointer in gcc 4.3.4.
While handling the builtin I want to find the assembler name of the
function the pointer points to.
My current code works if the the function is a void (*)(void), but it
doesn't work for anything else and unfortunately, casting it won't
help.
The interesting part is that if when I handle the builtin, I call
debug_tree on the call_expr to the builtin.
With something like:
void foo(void) {...}
...
__mybuiltin(foo);
I get the following for call_expr:
arg 0 <addr_expr 0xb7c6c3c0
type <pointer_type 0xb7c5ebc8 type <function_type 0xb7c16618>
unsigned HI size <integer_cst 0xb7bff4d0 32> unit size
<integer_cst 0xb7bff4ec 2>
align 16 symtab 0 alias set -1 canonical type 0xb7c5ebc8>
constant invariant
arg 0 <function_decl 0xb7c68af0 foo type <function_type 0xb7c16618>
addressable asm_written used public static decl_5 QI file
functionsize.c line 4 col 1 align 16 initial <error_mark 0xb7bff24c>
result <result_decl 0xb7c740a0 D.1176>
(mem:QI (symbol_ref:HI ("foo") <function_decl 0xb7c68af0
foo>) [0 S1 A16])>>
This works because I access arg0 and from the function_decl I get the
function name.
Now, if foo becomes:
void foo(int * x) { ... }
I get instead:
arg 0 <var_decl 0xb7c122c0 foo?0?
type <pointer_type 0xb7c69bc8 type <function_type 0xb7c21618>
unsigned HI size <integer_cst 0xb7c0a4d0 32> unit size
<integer_cst 0xb7c0a4ec 2>
align 16 symtab 0 alias set -1 canonical type 0xb7c69bc8>
used unsigned ignored HI file functionsize.c line 18 col 5
size <integer_cst 0xb7c0a4d0 32> unit size <integer_cst 0xb7c0a4ec 2>
align 16 context <function_decl 0xb7c73c40 main>
(reg/f:HI 21 [ foo?0? ])
chain <var_decl 0xb7c12318 D.1186 type <integer_type
0xb7c17340 unsigned int>
used unsigned ignored QI file functionsize.c line 18 col 5
size <integer_cst 0xb7c0a310 16> unit size <integer_cst 0xb7c0a32c 1>
align 16 context <function_decl 0xb7c73c40 main>
(reg:QI 20 [ D.1186 ]) chain <var_decl 0xb7c12370 D.1187>>>
which doesn't contain any informtation regarding the name of foo...
Interestingly it contains an align 16 context function_decl main,
which is from where I am calling the builtin but I don't think this is
important.
Now, I wonder in this more general case, where can I obtain the
function decl (so I can get its assembler name) for the function the
pointer is pointing to?
Cheers,
