When compiling mesa and xorg-server (in the same file in fact) and using
-march=k6-3 I got an assembly error, that not occurs if using (for proximity to
my type of cpu) -march=pentium-mmx
I've got the same error also in two other packages: imagemagick and sdl_image.
Steps to reproduce:
------------------
1) compile the Mesa-6.4.2/src/mesa/main/texcompress_fxt1.c with the following
comand line:
gcc -c -I../../include -I../../src/mesa -I../../src/mesa/main
-I../../src/mesa/glapi -I../../src/mesa/math -I../../src/mesa/tnl
-I../../src/mesa/shader -I../../src/mesa/shader/grammar
-I../../src/mesa/shader/slang -I../../src/mesa/shader/slang/OSDependent/Linux
-I../../src/mesa/shader/slang/OGLCompilersDLL -I../../src/mesa/swrast
-I../../src/mesa/swrast_setup -Wall -O2 -march=k6-3 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe
-fPIC -m32 -D_POSIX_SOURCE -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=199309L -D_SVID_SOURCE
-D_BSD_SOURCE -D_GNU_SOURCE -DPTHREADS -DUSE_EXTERNAL_DXTN_LIB=1
-DIN_DRI_DRIVER -DGLX_DIRECT_RENDERING -DHAVE_ALIAS
-DDEFAULT_DRIVER_DIR='"/usr/lib/xorg/modules/dri"' -DUSE_X86_ASM -DUSE_MMX_ASM
-DUSE_3DNOW_ASM -DUSE_SSE_ASM -std=c99 -ffast-math main/texcompress_fxt1.c -o
main/texcompress_fxt1.o -Wall
Results:
-------
The output of the compiler is
{entrada estándar}: Mensajes del ensamblador:
{entrada estándar}:1385: Error: el valor de ffffffffffffff7e es demasiado
grande para el campo de 1 bytes en 00000000000010d5
The english translation I think is like:
{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:1385: Error: value of ffffffffffffff7e too large for field of
1 bytes at 00000000000010d5
