Bug ID: 38945
Summary: Assembler does not understand symbol used as operand
Product: new-bugs
Version: trunk
Hardware: PC
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P

example
When building the powerpc Linux kernel, clang trips up on
arch/powerpc/boot/crt0.S:
cmpdi r12,RELACOUNT@l
Enclosing the RELACOUNT with () allows it to work. binutils does not require
this, so clang will not work with a bunch of existing code. It would be nice if
clang supported the same syntax.
A simple example, built with clang trunk:
cat << EOF > t.S
NUMBER = 0x6ffffff9
.text
.globl main
main:
cmpwi 8,NUMBER@l
EOF
$ clang-8 -target powerpc64le-linux-gnu t.S
t.S:6:18: error: unexpected modifier on variable reference
cmpwi 8,NUMBER@l
^
t.S:6:10: error: unknown operand
cmpwi 8,NUMBER@l
^
