error: forward declaration of `struct bit::bitObject'

2005-10-17 Thread Roel Bindels
Dear Listers,

I posted this question on the GCC-help list but maybe someone here can give
me some advice on how to proceed also.

I am working on a VC++ to gcc conversion, and I'm facing some problems that
I cannot find the answers for. I'm working on a Windows XP machine with
cygwin installed and as IDE I'm using Ecplipse. The GCC complier I am
working with is:

I'm getting the error message: error: forward declaration of `struct

I hope that someone can point me in the correct direction.

Wformat-security and string literal

Following code generate a _dubious_ warning message:

fprintf(stderr, literal);

return 0;
}

cc -Wall -Wformat-security -o main main.c

check_format_info() in gcc/c-format.c doesn't check if the format

Re: How do I disable classes of test?

2005-10-17 Thread Daniel Towner

Hi Dave,

Thanks for that patch. It has taken me a while to get around to using 
it, but it is very useful. I've attached a version which works with the 
current mainline.


Was there any particular reason why you haven't submitted it to 
mainline, as I'm sure that others could benefit from it?

Dave Korn wrote:


 Yep.  The attached patch shows how to extend the testsuite to add a whole
load of useful test-enable/disable-per-feature functionality.  After
applying this patch, you could add a line reading

set_board_info no_floating_point 0

to your board.exp and any testfile that contains the words 'float' or
'double' will be skipped.  It's just a crude line-based substring match, so
there will be false positives.  The patch is against 3.3.3, but should be
easily ported to newer or older versions, within reason.  It could be
reworked to allow cleverer regex searching if desired, but I didn't want to
make it overly slow.

This will misaligned the call/ret stack in the CPU, leading to branch

This appears to be gcc 4.0.x.  Is this correct?  Additionally,
I could not (in my brief inspection of the URL) find any info

If we go down that route, the option would only work correctly if
optimization is enabled, because you expect gcc to trace the source
of pointers, and see what the pointers point to, and check the original
strings for format characters.

ACK - gcc behave correctly if optimization is enabled. To my mind: a
pointer who points to a string literal is also a string literal. The
generated string is stored in the .rodata section, on either side (-O0,
-O2). The generated code is the same, but the warning messages differ!

No it won't.  I don't actually use that for the return insn.

I cheat and move the CFA, and that copy satisfies the return
address at CFA-4 during the body of the function.

Re: CVS access to the uberbaum tree

2005-10-17 Thread Jim Wilson

Peter Barada wrote:

Does the uberbaum tree exist on savanna, or is it only on
sources.redhat.com?  If so, what is the procedure for accessing it?


I would not recommend use of uberbaum.  There are some old-time 
ex-Cygnus hackers that use it, because it gives an environment familiar 
to the one we used inside Cygnus.  For everyone else, it probably causes 
more problems than it solves.


uberbaum exists only on sourceware.org.  It is a symlink tree that tries 
to make two CVS repositories look like one.  Because it is a fake tree, 
you can not use it for checking in patches.  You can only use it for 
checkouts.  Because few people use it, when it breaks, it may be a while 
before it is fixed.  Personally, I find it easier to just check out the 
different trees and then create a local symlink tree.


Note that since gcc is in the process of moving to subversion, uberbaum 
will likely stop working in a couple of weeks.  It is probably pointless 
 to start using it now.


I don't recall how to use uberbaum, though I do recall that the 
instructions are buried in one of the gcc mailing list archives.  If you 
search, you should be able to find them.

You must have something set somewhere to make this work, and have
forgotten about it :)

(IE an environment variable, or something).

Yes, but your account on gcc.gnu.org is [EMAIL PROTECTED], and cvs knows
nothing of SSH either.
So it couldn't be looking in your key or anything.  There must be a
CVS_USER or you have a default CVSROOT or *something* that is telling it
to login as kargl to gcc.gnu.org.

Once you've checked out a tree, CVS stores the remote user in the
CVS/Root file.  Maybe you have only forgotten how you created that
tree?  Pretty easy if you switch branches using cp & cvs update.

Question on i386 stack adjustment optimization

2005-10-17 Thread H. J. Lu
I modified the gcc i386 backend. Now my gcc optimizes function prologue

movq%rbx, -16(%rsp)
movq%rbp, -8(%rsp)
subq$16, %rsp

to
movq%rbx, -16(%rsp)
movq%rbp, -8(%rsp)
pushq   %rax
pushq   %rax

The change was introduced by

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2000-04/msg00263.html

I have a question. It is OK to turn stack pointer addition into
pop instructions with a scratch register. But I don't see how you can
turn stack pointer substraction into push instructions with a
scratch register since push will change the contents of the stack,
in addition to stack pointer.

Thanks.

On i386 platforms the contents of the stack aren't changed, because the
memory below where the stack pointer points to aren't part of the stack,
so this optimzation is safe.  However, on x86_64 ABI platforms there's
128 byte "red zone" below where the stack pointer points to that is
considered part of the stack and since GCC is using that red zone to
"push' values on the stack, this optimization isn't safe.
