Bug ID: 112413 Summary: Wrong switch jump table offset Product: gcc Version: 13.2.0 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: c Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: vincent.riviere at freesbee dot fr Target Milestone: --- In some circumstances, gcc produces bad code for switch instruction. Main goal of the testcase is to force gcc to produce a jump table. $ cat swi.c int g; void f(int i) { switch (i) { case 0: g = 6082; break; case 1: g = 9332; break; case 2: g = 5642; break; case 3: g = 1423; break; case 4: g = 2152; break; case 5: g = 6779; break; case 6: g = 7074; break; case 7: g = 8280; break; } } $ m68k-linux-gcc -Os -S -o - swi.c -mlong-jump-table-offsets -malign-int #NO_APP .file "swi.c" .text .align 2 .globl f .type f, @function f: move.l 4(%sp),%d0 moveq #7,%d1 cmp.l %d0,%d1 jcs .L1 lsl.l #2,%d0 move.l .L4(%pc,%d0.l),%d0 jmp %pc@(2,%d0:l) .balignw 4,0x284c |Potential bug here .L4: .long .L11-.L4 .long .L10-.L4 .long .L9-.L4 .long .L8-.L4 .long .L7-.L4 .long .L6-.L4 .long .L5-.L4 .long .L3-.L4 .L11: move.l #6082,g .L1: rts .L10: move.l #9332,g jra .L1 ... As the jmp may not be aligned on a multiple of 4, the .balignw directive may introduce a 2-byte filler, causing jmp to use a wrong offset. Same happens with m68k-elf-gcc.
