Bug ID: 106554
Summary: -fstack-usage result too low for variadic function on
Arm
Product: gcc
Version: 12.1.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: c
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: tim.schendekehl+gcc at egnite dot de
Target Milestone: ---
The following code contains a simple variadic function:
void f(const char *fmt, ...)
{
(void)fmt;
}
I have compiled it with the following command:
arm-none-eabi-gcc teststackusage.c -mcpu=cortex-m7 -mthumb -c -O0 -Wall -Wextra
-fstack-usage
GCC creates the file teststackusage.su with information about the stack usage:
teststackusage.c:1:6:f 4 static
It reports a stack usage of 4 bytes, but the disassembly looks like it should
be 20 bytes:
00000000 <f>:
0: b40f push {r0, r1, r2, r3}
2: b480 push {r7}
4: af00 add r7, sp, #0
6: bf00 nop
8: 46bd mov sp, r7
a: bc80 pop {r7}
c: b004 add sp, #16
e: 4770 bx lr
