Hello, by recent changes gcc begun to move code into the prologue region. This is for x64 SEH an issue, as here the table-information for prologue is limited to 255 bytes size. So we need to avoid moving additional code into prologue. To achieve this we mark all standard and xmm registers as prologue-used at the end of prologue. Also we need to emit a memory blockage.
ChangeLog 2011-10-12 Kai Tietz <kti...@redhat.com> * config/i386/i386.c (ix86_expand_prologue): Mark for TARGET_SEH all sse/integer registers as prologue-used. Tested for x86_64-w64-mingw32. Ok for apply?
