------- Comment #14 from dje at gcc dot gnu dot org 2008-05-09 21:41 ------- HP,
If there is no CONST wrapping the difference of symbols, does the CRIS port continue to believe the address is legitimate? In other words, Paolo's patch without the CONST? I would not object to removing the CONST because that particular RTX disappears later and CONST is placed in the correct position. Separate from the specific grouping satisfying legitimate_address, the RTL does contain a difference of SYMBOL_REFs from different sections. If it is not a valid address, valid instruction, valid relocation, GCC will generate the difference as an explicit subtraction across multiple instructions because it is trying to calculate that operation. I do not understand how the operation GCC is trying to perform in the CRIS port is valid using multiple instructions. Thanks, David -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36182
